Rebirth of the 80s New Farmer

"Thank you for your hard work."

After Zhang Zhengyang left, Wan Feng began to think.

After thinking about it for more than ten minutes, he made the following decision.

First of all, let Cheng Gong personally send the Huaguang No. [-] chip that he replaced the instruction set to Shanghai Huaguang Electronics for tape-out, and Cheng Gong will notify him immediately after tape-out.

Then he wrote a manuscript himself.

After finishing drafting the manuscript, Wan Feng called Lin Lairong and read the manuscript to Lin Lairong word by word.

Lin Lairong was a little dumbfounded after recording the manuscript: "Mr. Wan! Do you think this is true?"

"Our group's computer experts have been calculating for more than a month, and there is absolutely no problem."

"Then what shall I do?"

"Send it to the Juhua Daily, and then find a way to get this news to the media in the United States."

In the 90s, the control of the western media was not so strict. At that time, the freedom of news and speech they advertised was still the same, unlike the media decades later, which was completely stinking and shameless and talking nonsense all day long.

"Okay! I'll do it right away."

On the next day, the headline of the Hunan-Hong Kong Juhua Daily published an article about the Intel Pentium processor.

The article is as follows: As computers play an increasingly important role in life, the accuracy of computers has become one of the most basic conditions for its existence.Because once a calculation error occurs in the computer, it will cause immeasurable consequences. Recently, some experts accidentally discovered that Intel’s Pentium processor will have calculation data errors when dealing with division problems. For example, when using a Pentium processor to calculate 4195835-( 4195835/3145727)×3145727, the result is not 0 but 256.

This is just one of the mistakes. After rigorous calculations, the scholar believes that at least 1738 pairs of numbers will make mistakes when doing divisor operations, which makes the reliability of computers with Pentium microprocessors untrustworthy.

In fact, this is an obvious loophole. Intel programmers will not be unaware of its existence, but what they don't understand is that there is such an obvious loophole, why does Intel push it out?And to hide it?I hope that Intel can give an explanation to the majority of computer users.

The article is more than 300 words, and the explanation is clear in a few words.

As a window where the East and the West blend, Xianggang is one of the world's three spy capitals, and any disturbance can be spread to all parts of the world.

Six hours after Juhua Daily published the news, a tabloid in the United States reprinted it, and it was quickly followed up by several major newspapers.

As a result, the news that the Intel Pentium processor has a huge problem appears overwhelmingly.

Intel hastily jumped out to claim that the news media and certain consumers had exaggerated the Pentium's flaws.This defect has no special impact on the vast majority of business application software for personal computers.Only some very individual workstation software may sometimes reduce the accuracy of division results.

They have done trillions of random division calculations, and as a result, the Pentium defect occurs only in 90 in 4 billion, and it is located in the 19th to 2.7th special digits of the calculation results.Calculation errors caused by defects in the Pentium microprocessor will only be encountered once in [-] years for ordinary users.

Only one day after this statement appeared, the Hunan-Hong Kong newspaper that broke out that there was a problem with the Pentium processor published an article again saying that it was a big panic for Intel to say that ordinary users would only encounter it once every 2.7 years. Vulnerability experts said that this cycle is not 2.7 years at all, and it is less than 27 days. The exact time is that it will appear every 20 days, and they have given conclusive evidence.

Although Intel is still trying to quibble, the market reacted quickly, and the University of Stanford issued a statement warning its customers not to buy computers with Pentium processors installed.

The university's clients include companies listed on the Fortune 500 list of America's largest companies.

At the same time, IBM also made a decision to stop selling all computers equipped with Pentium microprocessors.

The emergence of this event completely disrupted Intel's development planning and business layout.

Chapter 1963 Thousands of Students Influx

Intel was in a hurry to get angry. They thought they could deal with this problem slowly, but they didn't expect that the Pentium chip had only been on the market for three months before the defect was exposed.

Moreover, this newspaper that broke the problem of the Intel chip published an article about the Pentium chip for the third time, claiming that because of the calculation problem of the Pentium processor, it has caused incalculable losses to some companies, and demanded compensation from Intel. He also said that this is only a problem with the Pentium chip being discovered, and there may be other major defects that have not been discovered. The final conclusion is that the Pentium chip is a failed chip.

Juhua Daily was the first to disclose the defects of Bestune, and then published two consecutive articles to attack Bestune. While expanding its popularity again, it made Intel extremely embarrassed, and the seven orifices were full of smoke.

But it's useless to be angry. It's not that people are lying about you. You do have problems, and you can't win in court.

When Intel was in a state of disarray, Huaguang Electronics did another tape-out test quietly.

The Huaguang No. [-] tape-out was successful for the first time. Although the instruction set was changed this time, because of the previous foundation, it was still a successful tape-out.

Wan Feng firmly believes that rebirth has brought him good luck. He knows some things in advance and knows how to deal with them, but things like filming have nothing to do with whether you know the answer to the mystery. It depends on luck.

Chip tape-out is simply a bottomless pit of money. Even in the 90s, the manufacturing process has not yet reached such a sophisticated level, and one tape-out will cost millions. If one tape-out fails, millions of dollars will be wasted.

Wan Feng's luck was so good that both chips of Huaguang No. [-] were successfully taped out at one time.

After Intel broke the chip problem, the computers installed with Pentium chips on the market were collectively dumbfounded, and their sales plans were all messed up.

Various computer companies have urgently removed computers with Pentium processors installed.

This allowed Huaguang Computer, which had been struggling with sales, to take the opportunity to break through, and sales began to strengthen.

The Huaguang computer itself is 1 to 486 yuan cheaper than others, and its performance is not much lower than that of the [-] computer. After the computer with the Pentium chip ran out, Huaguang became the king of sales in the Huaguo computer market in one fell swoop.

Jingdongfang, who was fascinated by the pot, exploded with thunderous combat power. It took only a week for Wang Desheng to go back, and the Dongfang 100 monitor they produced was officially offline.

In this way, Huaguang Computer finally made some profits.

At this time, the season of graduation from various colleges and universities has come again.

A group of people appeared at the gates of various technical colleges and universities in the north. They held banners and arranged seats, patiently answering some questions of fresh graduates.

Their banner reads the slogan Bohai Nanwan Group welcomes you to join us and let us create brilliance together.

Of course, these people are from the Nanwan Group's public relations department, and many of them are college students who have been to Nanwan Group in the past. They were seconded by Zhou Liming to persuade the juniors to come to Nanwan Group with their own personal experience.

The Nanwan Group offers generous treatment for these college students. The basic salary for fresh college graduates is 1000 yuan in the first year, [-] yuan for master students, and [-] yuan for doctoral students.

The salary increases every year, and there is also a bonus of no less than 2000 yuan every year.

Of course, there are scientific research achievements and bonuses at all levels ranging from 20 to 500 million.

After more than half a month of busy work, the results are quite brilliant.

In this year's recruitment season, Nanwan Group recruited 560 science and engineering college students from within Beiliao Province and 350 from outside the province.

This year, a total of more than 900 college students were recruited, including more than a dozen master and doctoral students.

At the same time, Shanghai Huaguang Electronics also recruited more than 200 people from famous universities such as Jiaotong University and Shanghai University.

Almost all of these college students entered the R&D department.

The scientific research building of the Nanwan Group finally didn't look empty, and it seemed to be a bit busy.

Wan Feng believed that according to this year's enrollment scale, he planned to build a new scientific research building in three years.

You can't wait three years to plan, you should plan now.

The scientific research base must be located in a place with mountains and rivers and an elegant environment.

Wan Feng's eyes immediately fixed on the hill at the rubber dam in Dapu Village, Gushan Township.
