Chapter 521 There are quite a lot of satellites released this year

  Xu Zhengyang looked at Qin Tao curiously, and Qin Tao saw through the meaning in his eyes immediately.

   I don't believe it!

  Qin Tao smiled: "Zhengyang, do you think I'm joking?"

  Xu Zhengyang quickly shook his head: "Don't dare."

   This guy didn’t say no, but he didn’t dare. The meaning in this statement couldn’t be more obvious, but I still don’t believe it.

"In our country, the main population and resources are concentrated in the east, and the west is still very desolate. If we want to develop, we must pay attention to the development of the west." Qin Tao introduced his thoughts: "In the future, the country We will inevitably develop the western region. In addition to roads, we will also have railways in the future. As I have already said, we need to build railways until they are connected to the railway line of the old bus. In this way, we can avoid It is of great significance to us to leave Malacca directly on land.”

  Vale's iron ore is mainly transported by land railway lines. Only Kangaroo Country has a vast land and few people, and it relies on large road trains with several carriages for transportation.

  If China wants to develop resources in the west, it must also rely mainly on railway transportation.

  If you want to get rich, build roads first!

"President Qin is right. Our west will definitely develop in the future, and we may really be able to mine our own domestic iron ore to avoid being controlled by others in this regard." Xu Lequan said: "President Qin, I want to say goodbye Thank you for telling me so much in the car, this is a major issue related to the development of our domestic steel industry, and I will definitely pay attention to it."

   After seeing off Xu Lequan, Qin Tao walked home with ease.

Some time ago, Zhao Ling had been in Mingzhou, and was responsible for transplanting the Hongqi-16A missile to the No. 138 destroyer. Later, she also helped with the integration of the fire control system. But now, the No. 138 destroyer has completed all the modifications. Work, joined the army, and entered the state of service, so Zhao Ling returned to Huating.

   After Qin Tao came home, he unexpectedly saw that Zhao Ling was also at home.

   "Hey, why did you come back so early? Don't you usually work late?" Qin Tao was very surprised that Zhao Ling was here.

  Zhao Ling smiled: "Yes, I usually work late, but today is Sunday."

Sunday?

  Qin Tao glanced curiously at the calendar hanging on the wall, it was indeed Sunday, but is there any difference? Don't you often work on Sundays?

  Seeing Qin Tao coming back, Qin Haiyang in Zhao Ling's arms immediately stretched out his hands for a hug, so Qin Tao took it.

   "Son, I haven't seen Dad in this period of time, do you miss Dad? Come, give me a kiss."

Sure enough, the daughter is the little padded jacket. If it was a daughter, she would have put her arms around Qin Tao's neck and kissed him on the cheek by now. This little **** would not be able to. He grabbed Qin Tao's nose and grabbed Qin Tao's nose. Grabbing his face with one hand, he began to treat Qin Tao's face as a toy.

  The more twisted Qin Tao's face was, the happier this little **** was, Qin Tao wanted to slap him on the buttocks.

   "Haiyang, don't play with me like this, Dad." Zhao Ling quickly picked it up. The little guy was not having fun, and grinned, and was about to cry.

   "Hmph, when you are weaned, I will send you to grandma's house. Your mother and I will have a younger sister." Qin Tao began to threaten Qin Haiyang.

   Now, Qin Haiyang burst into tears, and he didn't know whether the little guy was frightened by Qin Tao's fierce appearance, or if he really understood the meaning of the words.

  Zhao Ling glared at Qin Tao, then began to coax her, and finally revealed the granary, allowing Qin Haiyang to eat a few mouthfuls before she recovered.

  Qin Tao was a little bored.

   "The Hongqi 16A has been finalized. Next, do you plan to develop the Hongqi 16B with a longer range?" Qin Tao began to discuss with Zhao Ling.

  Zhao Ling shook her head: "We have to wait for the follow-up projects. We have more advanced solid fuel engines in our country, and then we can add longer projectiles to achieve the goal of a longer range. Now the relevant domestic institutions are still studying it."

  Hongqi 16 and Hongqi 16A are technologies obtained from Lao Maozi, and then their own side imitates and improves them. This Hongqi 16B needs to be fiddled with by itself, which is not that simple.

   "Oh, no wonder you are so idle."

   "Brother Tao, next, do you want me to resign and stay as a housewife, or as your secretary?" Zhao Ling asked tentatively.

Qin Tao glanced at Zhao Ling helplessly: "You? Forget it, I did want you to stay by my side as a secretary before, but you have your own ideals and pursuits, and I don't want to be your stumbling block .”

   "Brother Tao, you are so kind." Zhao Ling's eyes shone brightly, and then kissed Qin Tao's cheek with a bang.

   "The army is very satisfied with our Hongqi-16 missiles. Next, they want to let our anti-aircraft missiles go to the plateau, so I may go to the plateau to work for a long time..."

  Zhao Ling saw Qin Tao's face darken slowly, so she didn't say anything.

   "Brother Tao, you don't want to?"

   "The conditions on the plateau are tough, Xiaoling, can your body take it?"

  Hearing what Qin Tao said, Zhao Ling smiled, and she knew that her husband would not stop her, but only cared about herself.

   "Of course no problem." Zhao Ling said with a smile: "I have been exercising all the time, and I am already very strong."

   "Really?" Qin Tao glanced up and down at his wife: "Then I'll try it tonight?"

   "Try and see who will admit defeat first!"

   It is of great significance for the Army that Hongqi-16 goes to the plateau. After all, the conditions on the plateau are difficult, and the quantity and quality of military equipment are not high. If there are advanced air defense missiles, it will be able to better defend the sky of the motherland.

  Qin Tao can't stop his wife. As a military worker, he has to go wherever he needs to go.

   "By the way, I heard that the proposal of the National Defense Lottery is being further considered. If this proposal is successful, you will be of great help to the army." Zhao Ling said something else.

  Army construction is urgent, but the country's total economic output is there, relying on financial allocations, it is very difficult to form a huge aircraft carrier formation, so Qin Tao's proposal has finally been seriously considered.

  Sports lottery and welfare lottery are not as important as the national defense lottery. If this project is operated well, there will be sufficient funds for the development of the army.

  Qin Tao’s eyes also brightened. He proposed this plan at the right time and did not expect it to be adopted. After all, the national defense lottery is too illusory.

   Now, I didn't expect that it would really happen!

  Qin Tao also began to develop ideas.

"Well, if it succeeds, then we will make a big splash." Qin Tao said: "In other lotteries, the prizes are all cash rewards. Our national defense lottery can't do that. We can find some troops Retired equipment, disarmed and used as prizes, in this way, the money sold is pure income."

  Zhao Ling felt a chill for a while.

  Qin Tao has continued to plan.

"For example, the lowest prize can be a commemorative coin minted after dismantling and melting one of our meritorious fighter jets, and a higher level can be some models we made with bullet casings... the highest level, It can be the tank we eliminated, won the first prize, and the 59 tank was driven... No, drag it home, how exciting it is!"

   "Brother Tao, it seems that if this project is passed, you can be the person in charge of a project!" Zhao Ling said to Qin Tao with a smile.

   "I am the boss of the dignified group, and I am going to be in charge of the national defense lottery? Of course not, it is too inferior." Qin Tao boasted.

   The room was filled with happy laughter.

  Spring is here, and the animals are in heat again.

  After a night of exercise, Qin Tao's eyes also had bloodshot eyes, but what made him happy was that he finally won. In the end, Zhao Ling begged for mercy, and Qin Tao let his wife go.

  In the morning, Xu Zhengyang was very curious when he saw Qin Tao like this.

   "President Qin, have you stayed up late to work again?"

  Qin Tao gave Xu Zhengyang a contemptuous look, "Newly married after a long absence, you don't even understand this?" You guy, when will you find the other half of your life?

   "What work arrangements do you have today?" Qin Tao glanced at Xu Zhengyang.

   "Mr. Qin, if it's convenient for you, you can go to SMIC today. The Loongson-1 there has officially started taping."

Tape-out, as the name suggests, refers to the manufacture of chips through a series of process steps like an assembly line. However, in the field of chip manufacturing, this word does not refer to large-scale production, but trial production. On the chip assembly line, the first production Dozens of wafers, or a part of a wafer, are produced for testing.

  Generally speaking, as long as the tape-out is successful, it means the start of mass production!

  Qin Tao became excited immediately: "Of course I have to take a look, this is a new beginning!"

In October last year, SMIC's production line began to operate. At that time, the main production was memory chips. At the same time, domestic orders came in, and there was a great demand for various chips. Therefore, after the start of work, it was running at full capacity. state.

However, when Loongson asked for tape-out, Zhang Rujin immediately agreed, produced a batch specially for it, and personally supervised the process. After all, the production of chips is important, and the design is equally important. After this process, domestic chips The industrial chain is complete.

  The production line does not stop at all. The wafer-shaped wafer is being carved back and forth in the photolithography machine. Thin lines and transistors are slowly formed through complicated processes.

   This is the totem of technology!

   "Old Zhang, it's the first tape-out, won't there be any problems?" Elder Ni said worriedly beside Zhang Rujin. At this time, both of them were wearing white dustproof clothes, staring at the wafers on the production line.

   "As long as there are no problems with your design, then there should be no problems with our production." Zhang Rujin said, "Even if you fail, don't be discouraged. Failure is the mother of success. We will always succeed through improvement over and over again."

  Old Ni did not speak, and continued to look at the production line intently, with an expression like that of a child born in old age.

   "Mr. Zhang, I have a call." At this moment, someone next to him said.

  So, Zhang Rujin came to the corner of the workshop, picked up the phone there, and after hearing the words inside, he burst into excitement: "Mr. Qin? Are you coming? Welcome, welcome."

   "By the time you come over, you should have already entered the packaging process. That's right, you can get the Godson-1 chip!"

  The news that Mr. Qin was coming made Mr. Ni excited, and he walked towards the exit of the workshop: "I'll go out to meet Mr. Qin!"

   Without Mr. Qin, there would be no domestic processors! The Loongson team has been burning money since its establishment and is finally about to see the results. Mr. Ni can't wait to tell Mr. Qin the news.

   A Mercedes-Benz Big G drove into SMIC. When the car stopped, Qin Tao saw the excited Ni Lao outside.

   "Mr. Ni, you are in good spirits on happy occasions!"

"Yes, Mr. Qin, our Loongson One is finally coming out!" Mr. Ni said excitedly: "Actually, if we hadn't decided to switch to a new structure, it would have been out half a year ago, and we used it again. After half a year of polishing, now, we are finally about to usher in a glorious moment!"

   "By the way, has it been announced? We have to hold a press conference." Qin Tao said.

Press conference?

  Old Ni had a look of surprise on his face: "No, we just taped out the film and haven't tested it yet, so it's not good to announce it now?"

Qin Tao smiled: "Why is it not good? We must create momentum and start now! Zhengyang, please contact us. When our tapes come out, we will hold a press conference with the tapes and tell everyone The world announces that we have a brand new processor!"

"yes."

  The reporters from Huating swarmed up.

   "Hey, have you heard? We are going to produce our own processors in China."

   "Yes, there are a lot of satellites released this year! We have an aircraft carrier in our country, which is already exciting enough. Now, we are about to get advanced things like processors!"

   "The processor is much more powerful than an aircraft carrier. An aircraft carrier is just a ship, but a processor is a chip, a chip! The companies that can produce processors in the world can be counted with one slap!"

   When the reporters arrived at the banquet hall of the Huating Hotel, they began to discuss. According to the plan, the reception would not be held until that evening, but everyone came ahead of time. This is definitely a grand event in China!

   "However, do they have the authorization of X86? If not, they will be investigated for patent infringement, and even be sued for compensation." Some knowledgeable people began to worry.

  The thing that Mingzhou Group has created is exciting enough, but how to avoid the ubiquitous patent barriers?

  Everyone talked a lot.

   "Look, the layout has begun."

  The banner was also made in a hurry, and now it was hung up. The big guys were very surprised when they saw the writing on the banner.

  Warmly celebrate the success of Loongson-1 tape-out!

  Godson, the descendant of the dragon! Dragon Architecture, Dragon Command!

   "What's going on with the dragon structure and dragon instructions?"

   "I don't know, maybe it's a brand-new development by them? If so, how can they enter the personal computer market? The current market has already been occupied by X86!"

   At this time, in the far north, in the headquarters of L Xiang Group, a group of people also started to discuss.

   "Old Ni and the others really succeeded." Yang Qingfeng said: "This Mingzhou Group is really rich, and it actually spent hundreds of millions!"

"Hmph, even if the game is successful, it doesn't make any sense." Liu Zhonglie said, "What kind of dragon architecture and dragon commands do they have? The compatibility of processors cannot be compared with Intel and AMD. We L think that we are currently the largest brand machine company in China. When they come to sell, we don’t want a piece of it. Let’s see how they deal with this. The utensils are sold, hmph, what leftovers from dogs, how can people want leftovers from dogs.”

"That's right, I think so too." Yang Qingfeng said: "Our company must guarantee profits, and we are absolutely not allowed to do this kind of thing. There are business rules in business, and it is impossible for us to lose money to help them sell, even if the superior comes down to administer Command, we have the same attitude. I just don't know what kind of tricks that Qin will play."

"What can he play? He is a shipbuilder. His influence is in the field of the army and ships. In the field of our computer, he is an amateur." Liu Zhonglie said: "We have the final say in this field! We have good reasons not to use **** leftovers, technology has no borders, we only choose the most suitable for us.”

  SMIC.

  The BGA-packaged chip was put into Qin Tao's hands.

  In terms of size, it is similar to a 486 chip, with hundreds of pins densely packed underneath, and a metal top cover, sprayed with yellow English letters: Godson, followed by a big word 1.

   "Mr. Qin, this is the name you gave at the beginning. If you think it is not good, we can also spray Chinese subtitles on it when we officially promote it." Ni Lao said to Qin Tao.

  Qin Tao shook his head: "Let's use English. If we want to develop science and technology, we have to be in line with foreign countries. We can't be like the Qing Dynasty, which pretended to be a kingdom of heaven and felt shameful to learn other people's things, including language."

   "President Qin, here we come!" The voices of Zhang Dong and Wang Hua sounded from the door.

  In the past, they were also technicians of Loongson, but they left later and formed a special software company. The famous ICQ software has also become popular all over the world. Their Goose Factory Company has also become a world-renowned Internet company.

  Although the company has also set up an organization in Silicon Valley, the two still run back and forth often. This is their root. Recently, they happened to be in China. When they heard Qin Tao's call, they came immediately.

   "Well, you came at a good time. We will hold a press conference for Loongson-1 tonight. At this conference, you two also have the opportunity to speak. How is your game development going?"

   "After receiving your message, we started research and development." Zhang Dong said: "The game that has been tested so far is Violent Motorcycle. Although the game is small, it is still very interesting to play online."

  Qin Tao nodded. These ideas were all given by him. In this era, most games are still stand-alone games. How can this meet the needs of gamers? In particular, the interactivity of the game is greatly reduced. One person can only play with the computer, so what kind of game can there be?

Although Violent Motorcycle is primitive, it is an online game after all. Several people play online together, and they can also kick the people next to them during the game. Qin Tao in his previous life used to like this game very much, so he gave all his ideas to him. the goose factory.

   "It's just that this kind of online game is too resource-intensive, and only Intel's new Pentium Pro can support it well." Wang Hua said: "Networked games are too resource-consuming."

  Speaking of processors, people easily think of Intel and AMD, and X86. After the change from 8086 to 80486, because other manufacturers' CPUs use this name, Intel feels uncomfortable.

   What should I do if I feel upset?

  Of course I changed my name!

  So, the processor that should have been named 586 became Pentium 1.

   Next, it was Pentium 2, and until Pentium 4, it began to be renamed Core.

  Actually, between Pentium 1 and Pentium 2, there is another one that is not very famous, called Pentium pro. This cpu launched in 1995 is currently the most powerful in personal computers.

   "That's because you're going in the wrong direction." Qin Tao shook his head helplessly: "You put a lot of computing work on the processor, of course the processor is overwhelmed, you should put the computing power on the graphics card!"

   Graphics card? What is a graphics card?

  Wang Hua blinked: "Mr. Qin, are you talking about a graphics accelerator card?"

   "That's right, it's this kind of thing." Qin Tao said: "You should put the main computing power on the graphics accelerator card."

  In this era, the graphics card is not very important, it is regarded as an accessory of the computer. In later generations, all the calculation work of the graphics display is placed on the graphics card, and the processor is not very important.

   "The most popular one now should be Nvidia's STG-2000X." Zhang Dong said, "If we use this graphics card as the main optimization, we should be able to improve some performance."

  In 1993, Nvidia was established. In 1995, it developed the STG-2000X, which has advanced performance, but because it just came out, the sales are mediocre. In 1998, Nvidia made persistent efforts to get TNT out, and it became popular.

   "In our Dragon instruction set, there is a dedicated graphics instruction set, which also optimizes graphics computing." Ni Lao said: "If your program is optimized with our processor, it will definitely be smoother."

   "Okay, then it's settled. We combine software and hardware to expand the market together, and let the Wintel alliance get out of our country!" Qin Tao said.

  Old Ni's eyes showed hope, which is also his ideal.

   In the field of microelectronics, China must catch up and reach the world's advanced level! It's not too late to catch up now, I can fight for another twenty years!
