Hammer of Technology

"c stands for Huaxia, the first letter of the English name, n is the first letter of my name, which stands for Ning, m is march, which stands for March, d is dimensional, which means dimension, and represents the structure of this chip compared with others. The difference is the cnmd chip structure. The naming is state-owned, I have March, and it has characteristics. Hey, it happened to meet Chinese national missile defense! But it shouldn’t be a big problem, right, Mr. Chen.”

"No problem, cnmd is cnmd! Domineering! That's it, by the way, I'll bring a few friends to see you tonight, and we can sit down and watch the news together."

"Eh? No problem, I happen to be home at night."

"Okay, let's say that first! Goodbye, Dr. Ning."

"Goodbye, Mr. Chen."

……

After hanging up the phone, Lao Ning's erratic eyes fell on Ning Wei, and he seemed to care casually: "Which President Chen is this again?"

"Mr. Chen, who has done a great job in safety and security, our factory has outsourced the entire security department. The boss behind the scenes is this Mr. Chen."

"Oh!" Lao Ning nodded, and asked again: "He wants to visit our house?"

Ning Wei replied: "Yes, oh, by the way, Mr. Chen also said, didn't I make something new yesterday, the experts tested it today, and the result is not bad. Let me name the new structure if it is going to be on the news. Well. He said he would come over to watch the news with you at night."

"Ahem, it's going to be on the news again, at seven o'clock?" Lao Ning couldn't help but grinned, just like the kind of person who wants to show himself to be serious and serious, but can't help showing that he is spontaneous. The look of joy in my heart.

"It should be what Lao Chen meant." Ning Wei hesitated, he was not so clear about the problem.

After all, he didn't care too much about whether he could be on the news or not.Let's put it this way, Ning Wei has always felt that not being in the news should not be regarded as his loss...

"You kid, when people say they're going to watch the news tonight, don't you know how to invite him to dinner?" Lao Ning complained.

"Tch, let someone come to drink with you, you feel better, Chen Shuang and mom have to be busy from now to night, and I don't see you working in the kitchen." Ning Wei shook his head decisively, saying no to Lao Ning. Be careful.

As soon as the words were finished, Mama Ning poked her head out of the kitchen and asked, "What are you guys talking about? Are there any guests tonight?"

"Big happy event, your son is going to be on the news again. The boss who told Ning Wei the good news said that he would come to visit at seven o'clock in the evening, but your son refused to let him come for dinner." Lao Ning said loudly when he got the opportunity.

"You child, how do you usually teach you? They specially notified you of good news. How can you not let someone come to have a meal? Hurry up and call back, I will prepare now, Xiao Jiang, go and see what else is in the refrigerator ? By the way, tell Xiao Liu to come and accompany her too." Ning's mother gave Ning Wei a reproachful look and said.

"Okay, Mom, don't be too busy, Chen Shuang, let's go, let's go to the cafeteria to order two more dishes. It's almost five o'clock, cooking is too time-consuming." Ning stood up from the sofa as if admitting defeat up.

Ning's mother thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's okay! The food in your cafeteria is not bad, remember to order two more hard dishes."

Really, Mama Ning's attitude is probably the highest praise for the canteen of Yanbei University.

……

"You're going to be on the news again." On the way, classmate Jiang said something admiringly.

"Yeah, I told you that you stayed in the capital this winter vacation to save the world. Now I finally believe it. Why are you so important?" Ning Wei said with a serious face, and then he naturally put his hands on the girl Detailed waist.

"Uh...don't make trouble, Brother Liu is in the back." Although the two had established their relationship early, Student Jiang was obviously not used to being so affectionate on the road, and couldn't help but blush.

"Brother Liu is not an outsider, what are you afraid of? Oh, that's right..." After speaking, Ning Wei turned his head and said to Liu Wei who was calm in the ancient well: "Did you tell Mr. Chen that my mother called him to eat? "

"That's right, by the way, Mr. Chen said he still has a few friends who came to harass him."

"Then there are two more dishes to order. By the way, how many friends do you want to come? Didn't you tell Mr. Chen that I have social phobia?"

Liu Wei started to look at the sky, Ning Wei also turned around, and said to classmate Jiang beside him, "He didn't look at us anymore."

It's a very slippery way to hide your ears and steal your bell.

Just as he was talking, Ning Wei found out that his phone was ringing again, so he took it out to have a look, it was from President Yan of Huawei.

"Dr. Ning, I'm Yan Ming. I'm right here at the Mathematics R&D Center. I didn't see you. You didn't come today."

Ning Wei said curiously: "No, Mr. Yan, aren't you from Shencheng? How did you get to the capital?"

"Hey, I just got off the plane an hour ago, didn't I want to come over and treat you to a meal..."

"Well, don't invite me to dinner. My parents are treating me today, and there are other guests. You can come to my house first."

"I just guessed that you must have a lot of guests today, and I bought two bottles of good wine here, so I'll send them to Brother Ning."

After hanging up the phone, Ning Wei heaved a long sigh, this is really good, tonight is really lively, after thinking about it, one is also invited, and the two are also invited, so I simply called Tian Dao and Lu Dongyi again I got on the phone and invited the two of you to dinner.

Director Tian simply agreed, and the car happened to be on the way back to school, but Lu Dongyi clearly refused.In Senior Brother Lu's words, eating with too many people is not only a headache, but also a waste of time. Instead of wasting time on the meal, it is better to stay in the office for a while and think about mathematics.

Ning Wei took it for granted, but it's a pity that today he belongs to the host.

In this way, when he arrived at the cafeteria, he ordered more than ten dishes in one go, and when he got home, Yan Ming was already talking and laughing with Lao Ning.

Before waiting for a while, Mr. Chen also came, bringing two guests.

"Come on, let me introduce to you. This is the director of the Pearl Semiconductor Institute under the Huaxia Academy of Sciences, an academician of the Huaxia Academy of Sciences, Professor Zhang Yuan. This is the leader of our Jingcheng Microelectronics Institute. He is also an academician of the Academy of Sciences, Professor Zhong Chengming."

As soon as he entered the door, Chen Mingcai introduced the two guests to everyone.

Fortunately, during the Chinese New Year, the Ning family saw a lot of important people, and there were two more academicians among the guests. Lao Ning was able to handle it and greeted him warmly. Then, the door was knocked again, and Tian Yanzhen also arrived.

"Hey, isn't this Lao Zhang? You really have great powers, have you come here?"

"Haha, Lao Tian, ​​don't be so stingy, we're here to make friends."

"Oh, you have to recognize it clearly. I'm afraid that some people will be confused and won't remember which side the door opens next time."

"Director Tian, ​​please, please, our children are thanks to you for taking care of them." Lao Ning saw Ning Wei's indifference to the bickering of the big bosses, gave this guy a look, and quickly smoothed things over with a smile on his face.

The family is really lively, but it's obviously not suitable for me to talk about something.After all, there are too many people.

……

Fortunately, at the dinner table, after two glasses of wine, there wasn't much tense atmosphere.

Lao Ning turned on the TV early on and put it on the CCTV set. After drinking for three rounds, the sound from the TV made everyone in the room consciously quiet down.

"Today, the Huaxia Frontier Intelligence Research and Development Center under the Huaxia Science and Technology Department received good news. The three-dimensional silicon-through-tube chip technology proposed and researched by Dr. Ning Wei, a Chinese scientist, Ph.D. It has achieved great success. The radio frequency chip produced by this technology has achieved excellent results in various performance tests."

"According to the reporter's understanding, this three-dimensional silicon-through-tube chip technology pioneered the new model of heterotopic construction of silicon-carbon combination in terms of materials. By using new materials, new technologies, new processes, and new structures, it bypassed foreign regulations Various patent barriers are set up based on silicon. After strict testing by the national testing center, the chip products built by this new method have reached the international leading level."

At the end of the broadcast, there was a special animated video on the TV, which Ning Wei could tell at a glance. This is probably the internal structure of the chip observed under the microscope, and after some animation rendering, it was released.

"This new chip structure is different from the traditional two-dimensional planar structure. Through the three-dimensional structure of the tube, the number of transistors per unit volume has been greatly increased. Ning Wei, the chief engineer of the chip designer, called it the cnmd structure. According to Professor Zhong Chengming, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and professor of China Microelectronics Institute, this brand-new chip technology combining three-dimensional chip structure with silicon carbon will surely become the best choice to replace silicon materials and continue the myth of Moore's Law in the post-Moore's Law era. Next, they will dig deep into this technology to study how to construct and produce large-scale integrated circuits including cpu and gpu. Please allow me to express blessings to these silently working scientists on behalf of the people of the whole country.”

"Now insert a text message..."

……

After the news was over, Lao Ning pressed the time on the specially prepared stopwatch, 2 minutes!A full 2 ​​minutes, 120 seconds!I have to say that CCTV's timing is perfect.

Ning Wei is still wondering, when did he become the chief scientist of the R&D center?It sounds like such an awesome title, but he only found out after reading the news. Of course, he still feels pretty good.

Any title with the word "Chief" added to it immediately becomes a bit taller.However, Ning Wei is very suspicious that the so-called chief can even be said to be the only one. After all, he seems to have not seen other researchers in the laboratory, and there is a logistics supervisor, which is somewhat embarrassing.

Yan Ming at the table was the first to react and raised his glass: "Come, come, I propose to have a toast for the new chip technology developed by Mr. Xiao Ning!"

"Come, come, come... have a drink, have a drink!"

All the big shots put down their wine glasses, and someone immediately said what Lao Ning loved most.

"By the way, Brother Ning, isn't this the first time your family Ningwei has appeared on CCTV news?"

"Haha, yes, this seems to be the fourth time, but the first three times were relatively short, so I just mentioned one sentence, only a dozen seconds, but this time it took longer, a full two minutes."

"Brother Ning, if you want to watch him on TV, you just need to take good care of your health, there will be more opportunities in the future!"

"That's right, Lao Ning, you gave birth to a good son!"

"Hey, speaking of this, I have to have a drink with you, Lao Zhong, thank you for speaking well of my son!" Lao Ning excitedly raised his glass again to Zhong Chengming, who was also mentioned in the news.

"Don't stop, Brother Ning, this is really not what I said for Ning Wei, his research deserves this praise. This glass of wine will be drunk later, it is Ning Wei, the design and production process of your chip are very good. It has research value, is it conditionally open?"

Ning Wei's eyes immediately fell on Chen Mingcai: "Academician Zhong, you can't come to me for this matter. You got our Mr. Chen. According to the agreement we signed, these technologies are all used by the laboratory. All the data are stored in the computer. I only do research, and Mr. Chen is solely responsible for the external authorization. These are all signed contracts."

"However, for the new chip design, you can talk to Mr. Yan about how to get authorization to use our minimalist EDA. The latest minimalist EDA version provides a dedicated design interface for this [-]D silicon-through-silicon tube technology. Hey , Speaking of it, everyone is really here today. If you want to talk about cooperation, you can just chat slowly. It’s almost time for Chenshuang and I to take a walk every day. Uncles, I won’t accompany you ah!"

Well, Ning Wei felt that he had to give himself a like, and pushed everything out in two sentences.Then Feiyang winked at Jiang, only to see Liu Wei standing up silently before Jiang.

At this moment, Ning Wei suddenly felt that Liu Wei's always being so single didn't seem very pleasing to him...

279 When the cutie in March posts on Weibo again

Even in the era of mobile networks, the influence of China's most serious news programs must not be underestimated. After all, this influence is all-round.But it's definitely not just for Chinese people. It can be said that as China's national power grows stronger, the whole world is paying attention to these short 10 minutes a day.

Especially when serious news media reports are combined with Internet hotspot events, it can often catalyze extremely terrifying heat.For example, the phrase "XXX, your mother told you to go home for dinner."

Who would have thought that such an ordinary sentence could become popular all over the Internet, not to mention that this time it was a big event about chips.After all, chips are closely related to everyone's life these days.Without this thing, the mobile phone will not be fresh.Not to mention that the naming of this new structure is so distinctive, it directly has the same name as the Huaxia National Missile Defense System.

Soon, discussions about the new chip technology swept the entire Internet.

"Well, who can explain to me how the name of the CNMD chip architecture came about? The technology sounds awesome, but it's not as awesome as this architecture name! I suspect this is pointing at some people's noses and cursing others. "

"God damn CNMD chip architecture! Sure enough, it is a Chinese scientist. The name looks beautiful, popular, and appeals to both refined and popular tastes. The Core and X86 are simply weak! It looks like the rhythm of being hanged."

"If you don't understand, just ask, what does this new chip material mean? Isn't it said in the news that it is still a silicon through tube? Why is it made of a new material?"

"Read the news carefully, students. The news also said that this is a new heterotopic construction model of silicon-carbon combination. It probably means that silicon is only a structural part, and those transistors that realize logic functions use carbon materials. But it is graphene. It is still not mentioned in the carbon nanotube news. Given that the current technology for preparing graphene is not yet mature, I personally judge that the high probability is to use carbon nanotube materials.”

"Well, the microblog posted in March this morning said that a chip was rubbed out last night. It wouldn't be the news, right? Also @HUAWEI!"

"Visual inspection is yes, the news said it was a radio frequency chip, and Weibo in March also hinted that it produced a 5G radio frequency chip!"

"Ningwei Xueshen is indeed YYDS! By the way, does this mean that we will be able to use domestic CPUs soon?"

……

Even March's Weibo comment area became popular again.

"March, come out, today's news broadcast your news, obviously you rubbed it out with your little claws, why didn't the news mention you?"

"Meow, although I rubbed out the chip, but the chip design was drawn by my family, Ning, for my father! Ah Xi!"

"March, don't rub the RF chip, can you rub a CPU out tonight? You're going to rub it out, I'll buy you a small dried fish!"

"Meow, you asked me to draw a blueprint for my father, let alone one, my little claws can rub ten in one night! Axi!"

"I feel sorry for my family in March, rubbing chips all night, your name hasn't been mentioned in the news, don't want your father, come with me!"

"Meow, can you draw blueprints? Let me tell you that this blueprint is very difficult to draw. You must consider the ordering of each channel, the priority of signal processing, and the internal multi-valued logic transistors are in units of billions. Of course, The most important thing is, can you buy me a big house? The price is also in units of [-] million."

Obviously, this is really unaffordable.

Of course, the countless netizens on Ningwei's Weibo did not fall behind. After all, there is still Sanyue who spares no effort to help her irresponsible father drain.

"Kneel to Ning Xueshen who lives in the study!"

"If you don't understand, just ask, how much is the chip rubbed out by Little Claw of Sanyue? Where can I buy it?"

There are even more exaggerated...

"It doesn't matter where you sleep, I just want to ask if Ning Xueshen still needs a warm bed?"

"Please don't get me wrong, just want to borrow an excellent gene, can you?"

……

Of course, unlike the carnivals of various ordinary netizens on the Internet, those relatively professional forums are the real frying pans!The carnival of ordinary netizens is purely based on the number of people, but in these professional forums, there are really a bunch of people squatting here, constantly browsing the discussions on the forums.

"Is this three-dimensional structure really possible? I remember that some foreign companies are also researching the through-pipe structure?"

"Yes, as far as I know, IBM has similar research. I have read the papers published by their scientists before, but they are all theoretical. As mentioned above, this structure seems beautiful, but there are still many problems. It can’t be solved. Domestic research on this aspect is still in its infancy, and I haven’t seen a few related papers. Who dares to think that it will come out suddenly.”

"Really? Why can't I believe it? This three-dimensional structure has heat dissipation, noise interference, and three-dimensional channel connections. The complexity of these structures is an increase in the geometric level. Let's not mention the difficulty of manufacturing. How is this thing?" designed?"

"Don't make trouble, being on the news broadcast is enough to show the authenticity. In fact, I would believe it even if it wasn't on the news broadcast. My tutor participated in the research. Just now a phone call came over and scolded me all over the face. Why do people learn mathematics by themselves? The result I made casually is a few steps ahead of me who specialized in this, ask me if I am just dawdling every day! I am so fucking..."

"I'm going, how can the tutor upstairs be as virtuous as my tutor? Today is really a disaster. We do nanomaterials research. It's hard enough. The laboratory is busy every day, and it turns out that we are busy every day." What I do is useless, and I can’t compare to a mathematics student. If I can learn mathematics, why should I learn the materials?”

"The company's technical department called an emergency meeting in the evening. I have received the news during the day, but I have not confirmed it. I just confirmed it almost in sync with the news. Needless to say, this year will be busy. According to the new chip specifications Design a new motherboard adaptation solution. By the way, the company has also updated the version of the minimalist EDA at the same time. Let me tell you that if you want to continue to engage in chip design in the future, it is recommended to get started with the minimalist EDA. Now the personal version is still It's free to use, but according to inside information, it may be charged soon."

"Minimalist EDA? Is it the EDA software that the Jiangda Software Lab has been promoting before? Let me go. Last year, their promotion department came to our company to talk. As a result, the company leaders sent a family package for free to those fools. They all refused to use it, saying that the cost of re-adapting our front-line technology to the software is too high, and it is estimated that the leaders are regretting it at this time."

"Adaptation cost? It is said that the minimalist EDA software is very simple and easy to use, and there is no need for any adaptation cost at all? We are really embarrassed now! This time the chip technology can really be promoted, then the industry chain may have to be readjusted. Just now We received a message in the WeChat group that our institute may have to suspend the previous lithography research line and turn to research on how to promote the growth of carbon nanotubes in accordance with the order of the catalyst. Just sent a notice, the laboratory will rearrange the learning related content, and specially You have to take an exam, and if you fail the exam, you have to be transferred to another post! It feels like I have been studying for nothing in the past few years."

"I'm going?! No more research on lithography technology? That means that there is a high probability that it is going to be played for real. But is it too hasty? It is said that this chip is still a 180nm process, and it is okay to use it on a radio frequency chip. It has a three-dimensional structure. It’s not backward, but if the process can’t be upgraded in a few years, I’m afraid it won’t work to use 180nm technology for CPU and GPU? This process is too far behind, how can the performance keep up?”

"Probably not all of them. At least we haven't been notified of the camera. The visual inspection on the upper floor may be the lithography research institute under the Chinese Academy of Sciences. But it doesn't matter. Since the radio frequency chip can be made directly, there should be technical reserves. Yes. It can’t be said that there is actually a more advanced process, but it’s not necessary. I guess the main problem is heat dissipation. The density of transistors is too high, and I don’t understand how the heat in the middle is emitted.”

"Don't talk about it, some people are born awesome! I can't figure it out. A person who does mathematics can also do algorithms. You say he does algorithms, and he writes artificial intelligence. You say he does artificial intelligence. Smart, he is now entering semiconductors, and he has directly changed the life of old materials. You say he makes materials, and he has also created a new structure. So, I really want to ask the boss Ningwei, he What the hell are you doing? What the hell is it that you have finished other people's journeys, leaving everyone with nowhere to go!"

"What you said above is wrong. It's not that we have nowhere to go. It's just to open a new road and let us make a turn. I don't know if I'm old enough to learn new things. If It will be miserable if you don't learn it. Sure enough, when the times are going to eliminate some people, they won't say hello in advance.

……

For those who are seriously discussing, the 2-minute content of today's news will really affect their future jobs, and has even affected the future jobs of many people.The innovation of a new technology in the high-tech industry is not just as simple as that piece of news, nor is it as simple as being hotly discussed on the Internet, but it represents that an industry will usher in a reshuffle, and may even represent a change of an era .

When Huaxia CCTV News reported this news, it was the time when the sun was rising on the other side of the ocean, and when Huaxia Network was extensively discussing the technology of [-]D silicon-through-tube chips, it was also the time when those big tech companies in Silicon Valley went to work. when.
