Siheyuan: Starting from a fitter

Chapter 306 World Semiconductor Conference

Stanford University, founded in 1891 by Leland Stanford, the railroad king and politician of the Western Sam Country, is recognized as the heart and brain of Silicon Valley.

The school motto "Let the wind of freedom blow" is also the core of the Silicon Valley spirit.Silicon Valley is the abbreviation of the San Francisco Bay Area. It is located in Northern California on the west coast of the United States. There are more than a dozen small cities in it. The largest San Jose is the center of Silicon Valley.

Before becoming the world's high-tech fortress, Silicon Valley also had a peaceful and pastoral time.

It was not until 1929 that Professor Frederick Terman of Siftan University was determined to commercialize the laboratory's scientific and technological achievements in response to the economic crisis.

Under Terman's support, a group of young people known as the "electronics industry seed team" grew rapidly. They started the early Silicon Valley tradition of starting from scratch in the garage.

The most famous among them are Bill Hewlett (Bill Hewlett) and David Packard (David Packard), the two founders of Hewlett Packard (HP), the "source of Silicon Valley entrepreneurship".

And their original office, the warehouse at 367 Addison Street, now revered as the "Birthplace of Silicon Valley," has also become a historical relic protected by the California government.

In the 20s and 40s, the invention of the transistor laid the foundation for the computer revolution.Professor Terman introduced William Shockley, the inventor of the transistor triode and winner of the 50 Nobel Prize in Physics, to Silicon Valley.

Silicon, the most abundant tetravalent chemical element on Earth, has officially made its home in Northern California.

Since then, the apricot blossoms all over the mountains and plains have disappeared, replaced by row upon row of science and technology parks along California Highway 101 in San Francisco.

On January 1971, 1, Don C. Hoefler, a reporter for the weekly Electronics News, first called this place "Silicon Valley", which soon spread around the world and is still used today.

The background of this annual semiconductor conference: the rapid development of semiconductors in China has extremely compressed the semiconductor development of Sam Country, and its market share has been continuously compressed.

Two companies, Tongxian and Ertein, obtained Longke's 64KB DRAM technology license last year and are preparing to unite all semiconductor companies in Silicon Valley to compete with Tongxianji.

Li Guocheng knew the development of history. Even without the existence of Long Hua, Jiaobenji had to fully open up its technology and pay a large amount of compensation to escape the disaster.

In the end, Toutaji's semiconductor sales dropped from 50% to less than 10%.

In this life, due to the rise of Longhua, by 1982, the market share of Touton Chicken exceeded 40%, while that of Sam Country was 30% and that of Longhua was less than 10%.

This was the result of Li Guocheng seeing something was wrong and taking the initiative to give in.Licensing Tongxian and Erte gained the friendship of Silicon Valley for their DRAM technology.

Nowadays, the chickens are becoming more and more arrogant, grabbing the market like hunting dogs on the prairie, which has aroused the hatred of Silicon Valley.

At this semiconductor annual meeting, except for Li Guocheng, all the speakers were representatives of Sam State, and there was not a single representative of the chicken.They are still protesting now.

This conference was held in the banquet hall of Stanford University. In addition to people from all walks of life in Silicon Valley, there were also representatives from various universities.

Representatives from more than a dozen companies, including Nanpao, Pratt & Whitney, MBI, and Ertein, spoke one after another.

The first day was pretty normal, telling the history of Silicon Valley and celebrating its contributions to world semiconductor technology.

On the second day, the topic went a bit off track and came to intellectual property and commercial espionage.Others have suggested establishing a "Semiconductor Chip Protection Law."

On the morning of the third day, Li Guocheng was the first to speak.

During the two-day meeting discussion, although Li Guocheng also heard some development directions and application directions of semiconductor technology, he was more shocked.

He didn't expect that in 1982, Silicon Valley would target the chickens.

So he gave up the content of his previous speech and prepared to talk about something that people in Silicon Valley would like to hear.

Appropriate recognition can create a relaxed environment for Longhua's development, and he doesn't want to follow the same mistakes.

On the third day, the banquet hall was crowded, and many Sam people wanted to hear what this oriental-faced man had to say.

"Hello, gentlemen and ladies!

I am very honored to be able to gather with you at this World Semiconductor Conference to discuss the future development and opportunities of semiconductor technology.

In 1968, I was an audit student in Applied Physics at Stanford University.Although it only lasted for one year, it made me realize the greatness of semiconductor technology, so strictly speaking, I am also an alumnus of Stanford University."

There was a burst of warm applause from the audience, accompanied by whistles.

With the current chaos in file management, let alone an auditor student more than ten years ago, even a formal student might not be able to find the file. She might have been thrown into the furnace by Mrs. Susan.

Li Guocheng’s alumni remarks immediately brought him closer to the elites of Silicon Valley.

“After that, I traveled to Hong Kong and never gave up studying semiconductor technology. I also always remembered the school motto of Stanford University: Let the wind of freedom blow.”

There was another round of cheers from the audience.

“Later I made some money and introduced a transistor production line, which allowed me to stand on the shoulders of my predecessors to carry out semiconductor practice and achieve some small achievements.

When I received the invitation letter from the organizing committee, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep for several nights, because Silicon Valley is the holy place in my heart."

Everyone in the audience laughed and cheered for this young Sifutan.

During this period, Li Guocheng praised the famous companies in Silicon Valley and predicted that this place would become the world's technology center.Finally, it is concluded:
“Today, semiconductor technology has become the core of the second industrial revolution, and its industrial chain and application fields have widely penetrated into major fields such as computers, audio, video, communications, medicine, transportation, and security, as well as into public life.

In this era, we must pay close attention to the sustainable development of semiconductor technology and vigorously promote in-depth exploration of technological upgrading, innovation and industrial upgrading.

Strengthen coordination and cooperation, realize the ecological and diversified development of the semiconductor market, form a healthy, green, and low-carbon semiconductor industry chain and environment, promote the development of the global semiconductor industry, and promote the progress of human science and technology.

Here, I hope that more scientific researchers, entrepreneurs and investors will carry out more innovative exploration and practice in the field of semiconductors in the future, bringing more surprises and opportunities to the future development of mankind!
Finally, I wish this World Semiconductor Conference a complete success!I wish the world’s electronics industry will achieve greater progress and development!I also wish that the progress of the global semiconductor industry can bring more contributions to the entire world!
thank you all! "

The praised audience stood up one after another, applauded and cheered.

The main reason why they didn't target Longhua is that Longhua's products are very single and an individual. In the tiny place of Xiangjiang, they have always regarded it as a back garden.

Moreover, Longhua Technology is very knowledgeable and can share the latest technology DRAM with Silicon Valley in a timely manner. Although it paid high patent fees, compared with the subsequent profits, the patent fees are only a drop in the bucket.

It's not like being a chicken with its feet. It's the strength of the entire country, and they understand the characteristics of this nation, so Silicon Valley doesn't think of good things.
