When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

EDA is the abbreviation of Electronic design automation, which is a design method that uses computer-aided design software to complete the functional design, synthesis, verification, physical design and other processes of very large-scale integrated circuit chips.

To put it more clearly, EDA software is important software for designing, packaging and testing chips, and it is also a very important link.

If Wang Donglai can design an advanced packaging solution, then a problem will arise.

So which design software did Wang Donglai use to complete the design?
In fact, someone had thought of this as early as when the advanced packaging design plan was circulated.

However, not many people have delved into this matter.

Because no matter which software Wang Donglai uses, it must be a design software of a foreign brand.

After all, the performance of domestic software is obvious to all.

However, these overseas companies are well aware that Wang Donglai is not using their design software.

The reason is simple, because they are well aware of how powerful the products they launched are, and they simply cannot reach the performance of the advanced packaging designed by Wang Donglai.

With Qualcomm's capabilities, it naturally knows about this.

In the conference room.

Warren listened to the discussion and had already made a decision in his mind.

He tapped the table lightly, causing everyone to stop arguing and turn their heads to look at him.

"Whether Wang Donglai's achievements are true or false, the technology patents held by Galaxy Technology are real. They are a Chinese Internet company with real technology reserves, not a company that poorly imitates us without any technical content."

"At present, the company valuation of Galaxy Technology has reached hundreds of billions in the market, but all these shares are concentrated in the hands of the founder, which is completely unreasonable."

"I have decided to teach this scholar-businessman from China a lesson."

"The reason why we can charge patent fees for each mobile phone is because we have the strength to do so. Galaxy Technology wants to catch up with our years of technical reserves and bypass patent barriers by relying on one or two patents. We must teach it a lesson!"

"Only in this way will he realize how high the sky is and how deep the earth is. At that time, the company can invest a sum of money in Galaxy Technology. If possible, I hope to reach a patent cooperation. For this, you can make a plan after you go down."

“Finally, let me remind you that Wang Donglai is a target on the NSA’s special list. If you look down on him, then you are undoubtedly pointing at those big shots in the NSA and saying that they are trash!”

"Are they useless? No, so you still have to cheer up. If you complete the task this time, I think you can all have a happy Christmas."

"I don't like failure, and a failure doesn't deserve to stay here!"

Warren, the CEO of Qualcomm, was keenly aware of the conflicts and disputes among the people in the argument just now, so when he spoke at the end, he deliberately criticized everyone.

Sure enough, after Warren said these words with a warning tone, everyone's expression became serious.

The previous atmosphere of confrontation also dissipated.

"I have an idea. We can use the advanced packaging design designed by Professor Wang as a starting point to contact the EDA Alliance and put pressure on China. Then we can contact the executives of major EDA software companies and ask them to question this solution."

"Based on my understanding of China, these overseas companies will definitely receive China's attention, and the pressure will naturally be placed on Galaxy Technology."

"At the same time, we can also spread the word that we will block EDA software from China, tighten the review standards, and prohibit some users from violating regulations."

"In this way, all the companies in China will be affected. In order to prevent this from happening, they will also vent their anger on Galaxy Technology, the instigator."

"The next thing is very simple. There are only two options for Professor Wang."

"Either you prove your innocence and reveal your ideas for designing this advanced packaging solution and make it semi-public. In this way, major EDA companies can also get inspiration and quickly improve their capabilities."

"Another option is for Professor Wang to choose to resist and refuse to admit or produce the evidence. In this way, we can sue him, impose certain sanctions, or use other means to exert pressure, and at the same time, we can also lower the valuation of Galaxy Technology."

"No matter from which perspective, Professor Wang and Galaxy Technology have no way to break the impasse. No matter which choice we make, it is the situation we want to see and we can all benefit from it."

The white executive's eyes flashed with a shrewd gleam, and he spoke lightly with a reserved yet proud smile on his face.

This plan is linked one by one.

In every respect, it is an extremely qualified plan.

Therefore, Warren did not hesitate and immediately decided: "Okay, let's do it according to this idea. This mission is more important, so you can be bolder when taking action!"

"Yes!"

The white executive immediately agreed.

With this, a plan to use the technological monopoly and the voice in the industry to put pressure on Wang Donglai was completely formed.

……

Things turned out exactly as Qualcomm executives expected.

After executives from the EDA Alliance and several international EDA software companies raised questions about Wang Donglai on multiple occasions.

A hidden pressure suddenly emerged in the country.

Wang Donglai’s phone and Galaxy Technology’s phone were also flooded with calls in the past two days.

All kinds of people called.

Among them were professors from other universities whom Wang Donglai knew, some experts and scholars in the semiconductor field, and some idiots who kept asking Wang Donglai to confess and disclose his technology.

As the incident gradually escalated, Wang Donglai was not idle either.

Originally, he was preparing to proceed to the next stage of research and development.

However, after this incident happened, Wang Donglai suddenly realized that this was a good opportunity.

The time is not far away for the Bald Eagle to impose real large-scale sanctions on the country, arbitrarily impose tariffs, and impose technology and product restrictions.

It is naturally impossible for Wang Donglai to really wait until that time to lead major domestic companies to form a domestic alliance.

And now, there is a good opportunity.

He can use this incident to take a closer look at which companies will stand on the foreign side and cheer for them.

Wang Donglai will not specifically target these companies, but will simply not involve them in the later stages of development.

With this thought in mind, although Wang Donglai was a little annoyed by these inexplicable calls, he still continued patiently.

Seeing that Wang Donglai said nothing, Galaxy Technology did not respond either.

Bob, the director of the EDA Alliance, once again made a public appeal.

This time, Bob's words were even more intense. He mentioned Wang Donglai by name and made various analyses and judgments on the advanced packaging design scheme designed by Wang Donglai. In the end, he concluded that the design scheme developed by Wang Donglai was completely inconsistent with the development status of China's semiconductor field. Therefore, this design scheme was most likely plagiarized from other companies and was most likely a patent infringement incident.

As soon as these words were spoken, the heat surged again.

Wang Donglai, who was sitting in Tangdu and listening to the wind and rain, was also annoyed by the endless phone calls.

Even Manager Hu called and asked about the situation.

Facing Manager Hu, Wang Donglai naturally no longer concealed the truth.

After explaining it clearly, he also expressed his idea of ​​uniting domestic semiconductor companies to form a domestic alliance.

After this idea was proposed, it was immediately approved and recognized by Manager Hu. Manager Hu was also a knowledgeable person. If what Wang Dong said was true, then after the establishment of this alliance, Qin Province would benefit even more.

And what it takes is nothing at all.

In this case, Manager Hu naturally had no objection at all.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Donglai knew that he could no longer sit idly by and watch this matter continue to ferment.

Therefore, the official website of Galaxy Technology immediately released an announcement that Wang Donglai had prepared long ago.

The content of the announcement was very simple. It first rejected the doubts and speculations of major overseas EDA companies, then announced the news that Galaxy Technology had developed domestic EDA software, and finally, listed the names of people who had maliciously slandered and evaluated Galaxy Technology during this period, claiming that it would use legal means to file lawsuits for defamation and demand an apology from everyone.

This list includes not only some people from China, but also some people from abroad, such as Bob, the director of the EDA Alliance, and executives from Synopsys, Cadence Design Technologies, and Siemens who have voiced doubts.

The main point is equal treatment, regardless of whether you are at home or abroad!
This announcement and this list were like a huge rock falling into a lake, causing an immediate uproar.

No one expected that Galaxy Technology would be so strong and not show any fear when facing international giants.

Outsiders may pay more attention to the courage and dominance of Galaxy Technology in facing foreign authoritative institutions and international giants without hesitation and suing them at the slightest disagreement.

Insiders in the semiconductor field were shocked that Galaxy Technology had actually developed an EDA software.

You must know that in this regard, big companies such as Synopsys and Cadence Design Technologies have always been the dominant players, monopolizing 95% of the market.

There is not enough technical soil and talent in China, it is also very difficult to bypass the technical patents of these big companies, and finally it is because the domestic market is too small.

The market size is small, R&D is difficult, the investment is large, and the risk is very high.

With this calculation, there are naturally very few companies investing in this area.

Insiders are well aware of this, so they were extremely shocked when they learned that Galaxy Technology had developed an EDA software.

In addition to being shocked, everyone was also curious.

I want to know whether Galaxy Technology is just talking big, or whether it really has the real stuff and has developed a domestic EDA software.

Moreover, what is the performance of this domestic EDA software? Can it compare with the EDA software products of Synopsys and Cadence Electronics?

In the minds of domestic insiders, an idea has subconsciously emerged that as long as the EDA software produced by Galaxy Technology is not ridiculously bad, it will be a victory just because it is domestically produced industrial design software.

There are almost not many people who sincerely believe that Galaxy Technology will develop an excellent domestic EDA software.

Magic City.

Xinsheng Semiconductor.

The first thing Zhang Rujing did when he saw the news was to call Wang Donglai.

"You are such a good boy, you even hid it from me."

Zhang Rujing's tone was full of joy, but also a hint of hidden shock.

He could be said to be the first person to know that Wang Donglai was planning to develop EDA software, but when Wang Donglai said it at the time, he was not very optimistic.

Because he was well aware of the difficulty of developing EDA software, bypassing the patents of foreign EDA software companies was only the first step.

Next, we need extremely outstanding talents and teams who have sufficient understanding of the semiconductor field to develop a qualified EDA software in a targeted manner.

Finally, the goal is to make this design software reach commercial standards, with both tools and templates meeting the standards.

The accumulation of these requirements makes it extremely difficult to develop this software.

It is precisely because of this understanding that Zhang Rujing is not optimistic.

As a result, Wang Donglai gave him a surprise.

Not long after that, Wang Donglai developed domestic EDA software and designed a set of advanced packaging design solutions.

"Mr. Zhang, I was actually planning to make it public in the next two days, but I didn't expect that people abroad would have such strong malice towards me, so I deliberately waited for two days."

Listening to Wang Donglai's explanation, Zhang Rujing's face looked a little unhappy.

"These foreign giant companies are completely vultures. They won't attack you for no reason. It must be because you have violated their interests, or they see some benefits in you, so they go to such great lengths to make this matter a big deal."

"I am now worried that even if you take out the EDA software you developed yourself, they will not give up and will come up with other ways."

Zhang Rujing's original excitement about Wang Donglai's development of domestic EDA software gradually faded.

Instead, I made a guess about what these companies were doing based on my own experience and insights.

"Mr. Zhang, I know this, and I also roughly know why they are targeting me."

Zhang Rujing suddenly became curious and asked in confusion, "Why?"

"Mr. Zhang, Galaxy Technology has not been listed, nor has it raised funds. All the shares are in my hands, but the market value is so high, and there are so many valuable technical patents. Isn't it normal for those Western capital vultures to target me?"

Wang Donglai stated the real reason in a casual manner.

"hiss……"

Zhang Rujing took a deep breath. Although he was also a senior executive in a giant company, he was after all a technical background and had no exposure to these aspects. So he only reacted after Wang Dong finished speaking.

As it involves Galaxy Technology's shares and the market valuation of hundreds of billions, Zhang Rujing couldn't say much, so he changed the subject and said, "Since you have developed domestic EDA software, you should explain this matter as soon as possible. Otherwise, if it continues to ferment, it will also affect your company's international reputation and image, which is not good for your company's future development!"

"Do you need my help? I have some connections abroad. I can't help you with a big thing, but I can definitely help you with a little bit!"

Hearing Zhang Rujing's passionate and sincere words, Wang Donglai felt a sudden warmth in his heart.

"Mr. Zhang, we can't fall into the trap of self-proof. We can't be led by them. Since they said I was suspected of plagiarism and infringement, I will directly sue them for defamation. It doesn't matter how much money it costs. The main thing is that in this way, they must produce evidence to prove that they are not defaming me."

"Treat others in their own way!"

Wang Donglai decisively rejected Zhang Rujing's suggestion and expressed his own thoughts instead.

Zhang Rujing held the phone and nodded. Wang Donglai's response was indeed better than his own suggestion.

"Mr. Zhang, I am planning to hold a semiconductor conference in Tang City and invite domestic scholars and entrepreneurs in this field. Do you have time?"

Wang Donglai suddenly spoke up and talked about business, asking Zhang Rujing.

Zhang Rujing didn't think too much about it and agreed immediately. He couldn't help but feel a little curious about what Wang Donglai was going to do.

Invite domestic scholars, experts in this field, and related practitioners.

Although the development of the domestic semiconductor industry is not very good, it is still quite large in scale.

With so many industry insiders getting together, it is definitely not a small matter.

Especially since it was Wang Donglai who took the initiative to invite me.

Thinking of what Wang Donglai had said to him before, Zhang Rujing had a rough guess and said with a smile: "Okay, I have some face too. If you don't mind, I can also help you promote it and invite more people to participate, how about that?"

"Thank you very much, Mr. Zhang!" Wang Donglai thanked him sincerely. (End of this chapter)
