Chapter 384 The Arrival of the Liquid Crystal Era
"What good thing did you come up with?"
"Let me keep it a secret, you will understand when you see it."
After Sun Zujie and Director Tie arrived in Guangfu, they then transferred to Shennan Longkou, came to Oupai Electronics Research Institute, and came to a laboratory.
From the very beginning, Sun Zujie knew that the future of liquid crystal display is TFT-LCD, which is a technology that integrates microelectronics and LCD, and is similar to the structure of semiconductor memory technology.
Almost at the same time, Huatou and Samsung entered the field of semiconductor memory, and Oupai entered the field of LCD earlier than Samsung.
Although Huatou's financial strength is not as good as Samsung's, but because of Sun Zujie's relationship, Huatou's goal is more clear. Even so, because of the technology blockade of the United States, Huatou has fallen behind Samsung in the memory field.
However, in the field of TFT-LCD, Huatou, which started in 2, has gained a first-mover advantage. They have become one of the earliest players in this field, so what appeared in front of Director Tie this time was a [-]-inch miniature color LCD LCD TV.
Director Tie looked around the small TV in disbelief for a long time, "Is this an LCD TV?"
"Yes, in [-], Waguo Seiko Manufacturing had already been produced. We have been catching up in the past few years, and finally produced this miniature color TV recently.
Although it is only at the laboratory level, we have established a foothold in this industry and have many patents.Our next goal is to start trial production, and then to complete industrialization, using LCD displays for game consoles and notebook computers. "
"How much did you spend?"
"Hundreds of millions have been invested, and if you count the money to improve the industrial chain, it will be even more innumerable."
Director Tie was silent for a long time before asking, "Is this high-tech research and development?"
"Large investment, large output. Liquid crystal displays will first be used in portable computers. With the increasing scale of the personal computer market, the scale of liquid crystal displays will also increase. At that time, our huge investment will be converted into huge benefits.
I can tell you with certainty that in less than 20 years, liquid crystal displays will replace CRT TVs, which means that the hundreds of color TV production lines and CRTs that my country has spent billions of dollars to introduce will only have a good life of 20 years at most. "
Listening to Sun Zujie's cold judgment, Director Tie felt his hands trembling. You must know that Huaguo's color TV production capacity will reach more than 1000 million sets this year, but Sun Zujie told him that a new generation of technology is already knocking on the door.
Director Tie said seriously, "What black technology do you have, show it to me."
Sun Zujie nodded, and then drove Director Tie to a relatively secret laboratory guarded by armed police.Sun Zujie smiled and said to Director Tie,
"Three years ago, we successfully conquered the lithography machine technology for integrated circuits with a line width of 3 microns, and the supporting etching machines and CVD equipment have also been localized.
But unfortunately, because there is no automatic control technology, all this is only at the laboratory level.After five years of unremitting efforts by our scientists, we have now developed the first generation of automatic control system.
Now Huatou can proudly say that we have conquered the 8086-micron lithography machine and can already produce [-]-level chips. Of course, this lithography machine is still being debugged, and it may take a year or two to be practical, but Even so, it's worth it. "
Sun Zujie said with a smile, "Two years later, our program-controlled telephone system, BP machine chip, Tianyi first-generation computer and countless other electronic products can be localized and mass-produced.
In addition, there is another by-product. By the way, Huatou produced the first generation of domestic precision CNC machine tools. Of course, the precision is not high, but it is a good start. "
Don't look at the smile on Sun Zujie's mouth, in fact, he knows very well how much they paid for all this, and the money invested has really gone to sea.
And even though they talked a lot, this first-generation automatic control system is just that. Both production efficiency and accuracy are far behind foreign levels.
But even so, Sun Zujie knows that they are also successful. Even if the yield rate of the chips produced is only [-]%, the production efficiency is far inferior to that of foreign countries. A lot, but after all, there is no need to worry about those few chip production lines lying down because of foreign sanctions.
Director Tie silently followed Sun Zujie to another laboratory, which is an ultra-clean laboratory. Sun Zujie pointed to the equipment in front of him and said, "We are developing a new type of lithography machine. After five or six years, we have achieved Very good progress. This lithography machine has a unique idea. After improving the existing lithography machine, it can achieve a two-micron process.
I estimate that by the early 90s, we will be able to overcome the 1-micron process mark, so that many key chips needed by the defense industry can be produced by ourselves. "
In fact, solving the problem of the 1-micron process has helped Huaguo solve too many problems, not to mention the 386-micron process. The 22 chip is enough to support the needs of the F[-] fighter.
But now another very prominent problem has emerged. Huaguo does not have a few outstanding chip design talents at all, or there is nothing at all, so since the appearance of the simplified instruction set, Tianyi and Opie have focused on this latest generation of chips. Put a lot of effort into it.
The reason is very simple. The easier it is to track and research when you are just starting out, the more difficult it is as you go forward.Sun Zujie's current approach is to follow suit, while making up lessons, while exploring the opportunities for overtaking in corners brought about by new breakthroughs.
A group of young chip designers are trying to design the first generation of RISC processors. Perhaps their technology is still very immature, but anyway, the Huaguo people have taken the first step.
Sun Zujie must be grateful for the 80s during this gorgeous honeymoon period, which gave him enough time to make up lessons and study.So he also regretted how many opportunities Hua Guo should have missed in that era.
At this time, Huaguo has completed the exchange of new lithium electrode materials with the United States, Japan, Europe, and even Soviet Russia, obtained a batch of basic alloy formulas, and also carried out technical exchanges. This is also the key reason for Huatou's rapid progress in automatic control systems. one.
That's why Sun Zujie is qualified to take Director Tie to visit the lithium battery factory. This factory has a huge investment, and the lithium batteries produced mainly supply the needs of countless electronic products such as BP machines, mobile phones, and walkmans.
As the world's first lithium battery factory to be put into production, the orders in hand are currently being signed in. After the visit, Director Tie said with some emotion, "Now I finally understand what a knowledge economy is. Fortunately, Huatou is here. Otherwise, we will have the same The gap abroad will only be widened.”
Sun Zujie shook his head solemnly, "Director Tie, you are too acclaimed. All the work was done by scientists, and Huatou just provided a suitable opportunity. The honor should belong to them only!"
Director Tie hammered Sun Zujie's shoulder and nodded, "Good job!"
Sun Zujie laughed happily. He believed that the future would only get better and better.When he sent Director Tie away and returned to the office, Secretary Xiao Qin sent a stack of reports. When he turned to one of the pages, he couldn't help laughing. Finally, this day came!
Chapter 385 Toshiba Incident
Why is Sun Zujie so happy, because this is a piece of information transferred from other departments. The US emperor officially notified the allies of the details of Toshiba's smuggling, and the Japanese government also began to arrest Toshiba's high-level officials.
At the same time, the U.S. emperor began to impose tariffs on computers produced in Japan. The U.S.-Japanese computer war is about to reach its climax. Maybe there will be a scene of smashing a TV soon. Sun Zujie knows that his opportunity to take advantage of the loophole has finally come.
Toshiba fell, and Samsung was full. In addition to the support of the US emperor, in this major reshuffle caused by the US emperor, a large number of Japanese technicians were obtained by Samsung in various ways, even indiscriminate means. It has laid the talent foundation for the rise of Samsung.
Samsung can touch it, and Oupai, which started in Japan, can also touch it. This is one of the important reasons why Sun Zujie is ecstatic, such as the field of flash memory.
Sun Zujie has watched the famous documentary back then, and he is very aware of the mistakes Toshiba made in the process of flash memory research and development and industrialization.
At this time, Tianyi took advantage of Toshiba's lack of attention to NOR flash memory, successfully purchased the relevant basic patents at a low price, and began to conduct industrialization research. Although the progress was slow due to insufficient technical strength, the dawn has been seen after all.
While obtaining NOR flash memory, OPPEIN also started the research and development of NAND flash memory, and also obtained some basic patents and obtained some laboratory products, but unfortunately, it is very difficult to go further and complete industrialization, so it obtained Toshiba technical support is imminent.
In addition to the high-tech field, Toshiba has too many other good things. Since it has stumbled so much, shouldn't it be more cooperative with Huatou?
Huatou will help Toshiba invest in China, establish technical cooperation with Toshiba, etc. There are many ways.
After reading these reports, Sun Zujie happily left Longkou and came to Zhou Qiong's home in Guangfu. He planned to spend a few days with Zhou Qiong and his children a few days ago.
Already over two years old, the son who was running all over the ground saw and touched something at this time, and ran around all day, tossing Zhou's mother very much.
Little Zhouying was full of curiosity about the father who came to the house, but luckily, the child refused to admit his birth, and Sun Zujie picked him up smoothly.
Sun Zujie usually comes back once in a while, and often leaves after a few days. The child has just become familiar with his existence, and forgets it when he comes back again.
So Zhou's mother said that he regarded this place as a hotel. After hearing this, Sun Zujie was speechless. Of course he understood that Zhou's mother was blaming him, but what could he do.
But Zhou Qiong seemed to be used to this, she interrupted her mother's words, and brought up another matter with Sun Zujie with a smile.
"Zu Jie, fortunately you reminded me early, when my article was sent to the US Emperor, there happened to be an academic conference, and the instructor sent a student of mine to read the paper.
Hehe, this academic conference has attracted a lot of attention, and now this article has been published in Science, and this is the sample issue sent over. "
Zhou Qiong was very happy, even very satisfied. She felt that she was very successful now. This is a scientific journal, and there are very few scientists in Huaguo who are qualified to publish articles on it.
Sun Zujie took it over and looked it over carefully. After reading it, he asked with a smile, "What does the school say about your academic achievements? Is there any reward?"
