Until Ji Yuan was sent to the celebration banquet arranged by the National Security Department, Ling Ziqian still felt a bit hesitant.
Had the gap between people become this vast? It was even more terrifying than the differences between species!
They were both young, and he was five or six years older than Ji Yuan. He had been called a prodigy by his elders since childhood... But looking at the basic information about Ji Yuan left in the car, he fell into a long silence.
Ji Yuan naturally had no idea what Ling Ziqian was thinking; he only felt that Ling Ziqian was a difficult person to get along with. He didn't expect that Ling Ziqian would actually be interested in Chip Technology.
However, science is heavily reliant on talent, and logical thinking needs to be cultivated. If one is lacking in innate ability and the education received afterward is insufficient, missing the most critical period for acquiring knowledge in life, then no matter what, one cannot achieve anything significant in research.
Aside from just passing time, it would be of no use at all. The reason chips are considered the pinnacle of human-made creations is due to their complexity and the overwhelming difficulty, precision, and high standards required.
This is a fusion of multiple disciplines; only the most advanced intellect and the most fundamental, cutting-edge craftsmanship can create a chip filled with billions of Integrated Circuits.
CPU, GPU, IO—almost all functions related to data processing tasks must complete extremely complicated calculations through this tiny chip.
Before this, the best chips that the Eastern power could manufacture were the Pentium series, and the best lithography machines were those at the 70nm level. Due to the severe lag in lithography machines and the weak foundation of materials science, although Pentium chips barely squeezed into the performance range of mid-range chips, they were almost four or five generations behind the top fan-out chips that are mainstream in today's world! There was no possibility of competition whatsoever.
In the military field, chip issues have always been prominent, hindering the pace of technological informatization. Many high-tech military industry products that require cutting-edge chips could only rely on stacking methods to increase computing power for makeshift use. For example, while foreign forces used military chips manufactured with a 7nm process, the Eastern power needed to group together hundreds of 70nm chips to bridge the gap.
"Comrade Ji, on behalf of the country and the people, I sincerely thank you for your contributions!" An elderly leader with white hair and an excited expression bent slightly at the waist to shake his hand.
Ji Yuan, lost in thought, immediately came back to his senses and politely replied, "Serving the people and repaying the motherland is my duty!"
"The country will never let down its national heroes!" The elder looked at other hopeful members of the research group and said emphatically, "I promise you here that the country will not disappoint your hard work; what you deserve will definitely be given to you!"
A domestic entrepreneur once stated that there are two very important reasons for employees to change jobs: one is inadequate salary and benefits, and the other is job dissatisfaction. He strongly agrees with this perspective! There is no reason to send 'soldiers' into battle on an empty stomach. Instead of racking one's brain to figure out how to encourage 'soldiers' to willingly fight the enemy while hungry, it is better to ask oneself why they cannot create better conditions and a more favorable environment for them.
The success of Chip Engineering has far-reaching implications that are hard for ordinary people to imagine. The Eastern giant spends nearly two trillion yuan each year importing chips to meet domestic demand. What does two trillion mean? It could build four aircraft carriers, creating an aircraft carrier fleet! It could replace nearly 20 strategic weapon production lines! It could produce 6,000 Dongfeng 41 missiles! It could establish 10,000 higher education institutions like Tsinghua and Peking Universities.
The localization of chips not only saves the country at least two trillion yuan in foreign exchange every year but also significantly enhances the technological level of the Eastern giant. For those aspiring to lead the next industrial revolution, this is crucial.
Having the chip is almost equivalent to standing at the pinnacle of economic results.
With the chip in hand, the growing pains of upgrading the manufacturing industry in the Eastern power will soon pass; it will not be as painfully struggling as imagined, which would hinder high-end development while low-end production gets siphoned off by surrounding countries, exacerbating the hollowing out of the manufacturing sector.
Moreover, once 7nm chips are mass-produced, they can not only meet domestic demand but also be pushed into the international market, yielding substantial profits while simultaneously striking back at those international manufacturers who often use chips to hold the Eastern power hostage.
The world's top manufacturers of lithography machines and chip manufacturing companies indeed possess 5nm and even 3nm technology, but it will take a considerable amount of time for these technologies to be successfully commercialized.
For the time being, there is no possibility of forming a crushing advantage over the Eastern power's 7nm chips.
Furthermore, with the Eastern power's consistent "quick shooter" style, it may not take long before they successfully achieve a leapfrog development…
