From Almighty Scholar to Chief Scientist

However, he is not a programmer, he has a good friend who is a top programmer.

Moreover, what his top programmer friend has been working on recently also happens to be EDA software!

Chapter 336 Differentiated Functions

Seeing Lin Xiao laughing, the old man looked inquiringly: "Professor Lin, do you have a solution?"

If there is no way to solve this problem, and the impact on the country will be relatively large in the end, then the time for the announcement of room temperature superconductors may be brought forward.

But obviously, this will affect the established plan, which is obviously not good, and it is obviously better if this problem can be solved.

Lin Xiao smiled and said, "Please wait for me to make a call."

"Okay." The old man nodded.

Then Lin Xiao took out his mobile phone and called Kong Hua'an.

Soon, the phone was connected.

"Hey, Lin Xiao, why are you suddenly free to call me?"

Lin Xiao didn't say anything else, and went straight to the topic: "Old Kong, where is your EDA software developed?"

Kong Hua'an on the opposite side was taken aback, and then replied: "It is now at the last juncture, and all the necessary functions are complete, but I have been thinking about how to add some special functions to it, and it is different from other software on the market. Forming a kind of differentiation is also very meaningful for occupying the market in the future.”

"Difference?" Lin Xiao thought for a moment, and then said, "Okay, I see. I may go to you this afternoon."

"Looking for me? Well, I see."

After that, without further words, Lin Xiao hung up the phone.

The old man smiled and asked, "Who is it?"

"Kong Hua'an also made a great contribution to the X-ray project. He proposed a lattice light source model, which solved the key problem at the software level for us." Lin Xiao said.

"Oh, I remember this young man, is he the same age as you?"

"Yes."

"He is also an excellent young man." The old man praised, and then asked: "Is he developing EDA software?"

"Yes, and it's the last part."

The old man suddenly showed a gratified smile, "Okay, it seems that there are excellent young people like you here, so I don't have to worry about it."

Then he looked at the time, and said to Lin Xiao: "Then let's stop here today, we have enough food and drink, and we have to continue to work."

Lin Xiao nodded and said with a smile, "You have worked hard."

"You've worked hard too." The old man patted Lin Xiao on the shoulder, then waved to him, "Then see you next time."

"Goodbye."

Lin Xiao nodded, and then, with the departure of the old man, his secretary and other entourage, Lin Xiao's occasional meeting ended here.

There was emotion in his heart, but he didn't care that much.

Recalling the restriction of their EDA software, Lin Xiao smiled contemptuously.

Such behavior seemed to him like a final struggle.

As for why the other party didn't sanction before, but now they suddenly impose sanctions, Lin Xiao can easily figure out the reason, it's nothing more than seeing that he didn't have any accidents in that incident, so he exposed his ugly face, but he was probably still afraid of him I really researched other semiconductor raw materials, so I started to work on the software.

His guess was indeed correct. The other party really thought so. Lin Xiao had shown his genius-like ability in the research and development of new materials, so they chose a software program that Lin Xiao had never used. place to do things.

Moreover, EDA software is a very important link in the downstream market of semiconductors. Everything in semiconductors is for the production of chips, so as an indispensable thing in the chip design link, the necessity of EDA software is needless to say.

Moreover, in the entire semiconductor sector, the profit of chip design companies is often the highest. The T0 level is Apple. The chips it produces are a key to bringing extremely high added value to its electronic products, making it directly among the top [-] companies. Top five in turnover and No. [-] in net profit.

Next are Intel, Nvidia, and massage shops, the three giants that occupy the PC-side chips, followed by Qualcomm, Warwick before 2020 and now, and companies such as MediaTek that have recently emerged.

The scale of hundreds of billions of dollars in the chip market is basically supported by these companies. As for chip foundries, only TSMC has achieved the ability to sit on an equal footing with these chip design companies by virtue of its 50.00% market share. This is the only one. As for the second-ranked Samsung chip foundry, it has collapsed a lot.

All in all, EDA software is very important.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiao didn't stay any longer, and left here directly to find Kong Hua'an.

After the end of the X-ray project, Kong Huaan didn't get any benefits, and went back to his Anhua Network Technology Co., Ltd. directly.

It was still the Hua'an Hotel, and the people were still the same as before.

Although Anhua Network Technology Co., Ltd. can directly carry out shareholding restructuring and become a joint stock company and go public directly, but for the talented programmers here, they basically don't bother to deal with the listing.

When Lin Xiao arrived at the company, he was welcomed by these programmers.

"The forest god is here!"

"Lin Shen, long time no see!"

"What are you calling Lin Shen, you have to call Master Lin!"

"..."

Looking at these people, Lin Xiao smiled and nodded at them all: "Long time no see."

Lin Xiao's response made these programmers excited again.

For them, Lin Xiao, the man who created the lithography machine, is simply the real god in their eyes.

Programmers all know computers. After all, when learning computers, you have to memorize some things related to chips. What's more, they are more or less electronic product enthusiasts. Naturally, they knew that there was no lithography machine in Huaguo before. I am aggrieved that I can't make chips.

However, Lin Xiao built a lithography machine for Huaguo. Of course, they all admire Lin Xiao very much.

Then there was a lot of flattering voices.

"Lin Shen, you are the eternal God!"

"Lin Shen, teach us how to build a lithography machine!"

"What's the machine?"

In addition, there are also some heavyweight speeches, such as:

"Wow, God Lin smiled at me! He has me in his heart!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at the heavyweight player with strange eyes.

The corner of Lin Xiao's mouth twitched, and he quickly waved his hands and ran away.

He quickly entered the chairman's office. This office is not as luxurious as other chairman's offices. Instead, it is very simple with sofas, large solid wood desks, and bookcases full of books.

And the desk among them has five monitors on it, and there are several hosts beside it. It looks like an entire sci-fi base.

And Kong Huaan was sitting in front of that desk, his fingers "playing the piano" like dancing on the keyboard.

Programmers, typing speed is basically not slow, and Kong Huaan, as a top programmer, and a top hacker, his typing speed is even more incomparably fast.

Lin Xiao didn't disturb his work either, just watched quietly from the side.

After a while, Kong Huaan pressed the Enter key. After waiting for a while, a BUG window popped up on one of the monitors, and Kong Huaan couldn't help scratching his head.

And at this time, he finally noticed Lin Xiao next to him.

"Huh? Are you here?"

"I am coming."

"You're finally here."

Lin Xiao smiled and said, "What's the problem?"

"Didn't I tell you that I want to come up with a different function, this function is the intelligent analysis function."

"The main reason is that this intelligent analysis function can analyze whether the circuit can operate normally at all times, and can optimize and analyze the circuit designed by the chip design engineer, but this step is a bit too difficult."

Lin Xiao frowned, "Intelligent analysis? And to optimize the entire integrated circuit? That's really difficult."

"You think it's a bit difficult?" Kong Hua'an suddenly showed a regretful expression: "Then it seems that I shouldn't engage in this thing."

Lin Xiao: "...I think it's difficult, so why not do it?"

Kong Huaan didn't speak, as if he had returned to his usual taciturn appearance.

Lin Xiao stood up at this moment, stroked his chin, and fell into thinking.

The realization of this function is a process of a whole set of logic, and the realization of this whole set of logic is the algorithm behind it, and finally, it is implemented in mathematics.

But the problem is, how to reduce this problem into a mathematical problem is something worth considering.

Obviously, this requires the combination of mathematics and informatics for research, but Lin Xiao's current informatics is only at the very first level. Although his mathematics is very strong, it is like thread tearing Or run 4350A masterpieces with HD3, the pressure is on the graphics card, not on the CPU.

Lin Xiao frowned slightly, and said in his heart: "Open the personal panel."

A panel suddenly appeared in front of him.

[Host: Lin Xiao]

[Truth points: 815]

【Universal truth branch level】

【Mathematics: Level 6 (9100/30000)】

[Chemistry: Level 4 (1200/5000)

[Physics: Level 5 (9000/10000)]

[Biology: Level 1 (2/50)]

[Materials: Level 4 (4500/5000)]

[Informatics: Level 1 (25/50)]

Looking at biology and informatics that don't quite match, Lin Xiao made the expression of a subway man looking at his mobile phone in his heart.

Then, he realized that truth points can be exchanged for experience, and 1 truth point equals 10 experience.

In the past, he didn't upgrade with truth points because it was unnecessary, but this time there was no need to worry about so much, so he said in his heart: "Exchange 25 points of informatics experience."

System: "The exchange was successful, and a total of 2.5 truth points were spent."

Afterwards, Lin Xiao felt a slight heat in his mind, which was the reason for the upgrade of Informatics to Level 2, which brought about a 0.2% increase in brain development.

In other words, his brain development has reached 9.55%.

In addition, his understanding of informatics has also been improved again.

Suddenly, he felt some inspiration flashed in his mind.

Then, he smiled slightly and said, "I have a solution."

Chapter 337 Birthday Paradox and Feign Attack

"Do you have a way?"

Hearing Lin Xiao's words, Kong Hua'an was taken aback for a moment.

He thought for so long, but he didn't think of what to do. As a result, Lin Xiao had a solution so soon?

Lin Xiao smiled and said, "Do you know the birthday paradox?"

"know."

Of course, Kong Huaan knew that when he was studying cryptography, he generally understood this. As a hacker, he spent almost a lot of time fighting against cryptography, so he naturally did some research on cryptography.

Strictly speaking, the birthday paradox is not a paradox, it's just counterintuitive.

"The probability that at least two people have the same birthday among no less than 23 people is greater than 50%, and when there are no less than 60 people, this probability directly becomes 99%."

Lin Xiao opened his mouth and stated the birthday paradox.

Obviously, this conclusion is quite counterintuitive.

Without considering the leap year, there are 365 days in a year, and there must be at least 366 people to ensure that two people have the same birthday. As a result, the probability is changed from 1 to 0.5, and the number of people changes from 366 to 23?

But if calculated from the method of mathematical statistics, this is completely correct.

Kong Huaan nodded, this birthday paradox is indeed so strange, but for mathematical geniuses like them, this is not a problem.

It must not be forgotten that Kong Huaan had won the CMO gold medal back then, and his mathematical talent was still at the level of a genius in the eyes of ordinary people.

However, what does the thing Lin Xiao mentioned have anything to do with their question?

One is cryptography, and the other is artificial intelligence.
