Rebirth of the Military Industrial Overlord

Chapter 506: Wait till the flowers are gone

Caddy Gass was very disappointed.

She was already ready to ask Eric about his strong brother today. Since meeting with that brother that night and having a supper together, she found herself full of brains. All thinking about him.

That face that is not handsome but full of "masculinity", that sturdy torso, that angular muscles, that swift punching and fierce fighting, that blood-stained face is still fighting and strong will ...

This is the real man!

Kaidi felt that as long as he remembered the scene of Li Yanan fighting in the iron cage that night, he would be passionate and emotional.

In the past, there was also such a magic boy from Xiangjiang on the screen with his iconic shouting and shaking fingers to attract the girl who was pregnant, but after watching the game that night, Caddy believed that if the big star Bruce Lee still returned If he is alive and confronts that brother named Li Yanan, I am afraid I will lose miserably.

After all, even laymen know that movies can use a lot of special effects, and good-looking fights are not necessarily practical. But the fights in the iron cage are not the same. Not only are they real, they are more deadly. Participants must go all out because, in There, the price the loser will pay is life.

Unfortunately, since the first class of school today, whether it is the open calculus with more than 400 people studying or the analog circuit foundation of only more than 30 people in this major, she has not been able to find Eric.

However, she still got some clues.

In the open class of calculus, she met Eric's roommate Richard, and learned from him that Eric received a telegram last night and left Stanford early this morning.

Well, it seems that this junior is also a mysterious figure, so courageous that he has been absent from school since the first day he joined Stanford.

Is it true that Huaxia people are like this? It's incredible.

It is a pity that Richard, like himself, could not provide any fresh news about the mysterious brother. Although he was also from Xiangjiang, it seemed that they knew each other no more than a minute earlier than himself.

Caddy had to reluctantly suppressed his anxiety and waited patiently for Eric to return. He always has to come back to class, right?

What a pity she doesn't know is, this time, she really waited until the flowers were gone...

When Kaidi was looking for Tan Zhenhua's trail all over the campus, he was saying goodbye to Li Yanan and embarking on a flight to London.

Well, Xiao Tan Tan is very careful, even though he doesn’t believe that Matthew Mellon will really file a lawsuit or do other extraordinary things in order to avenge himself, but it’s always good to be careful, so he is Before leaving for Britain, I went to see Li Yanan and asked my senior to do something for him.

Although these things were a little bit embarrassing and out of the ordinary, Li Yanan still agreed very happily.

He is now in charge of Banjie, and he has accepted such a small request from the junior who had given him and the Xiaoyao sisters a lot of help before he even thought about it.

Besides, before he left Xiangjiang, he had promised Shao Liuye one thing.

Tan Zhenhua arrived at the airport to confirm his flight, and sent a telegram to Yifu Shao in London to know his itinerary before boarding the Boeing 747-200 flying this route.

Having to fly more than 8,600 kilometers and more than ten hours in the air, Tan Zhenhua suddenly felt a little numb in his scalp. Could it be that his life is destined to be a trapeze?

It seems that the first thing to do after the smooth implementation of the "BAC" plan is to get yourself a plane. The safety is good, double-engines are not insured, and four-engines are best; if possible, there must be some differences. What's more reliable life-saving method; the voyage is long, starting at 10,000 kilometers; the cockpit layout must be comfortable, um, you must have a bed to sleep comfortably, and a bathtub is also necessary. It is best to use a large double-person model with massage...

He thought about it beautifully, and then fell asleep in the wide seat of the first class cabin.

...

Fujio Masuoka walked out of Intel's tall and tidy office building full of thoughts. He felt that his efforts this time would definitely end in failure.

The reason for this premonition is not that Intel does not pay attention to him, nor is it not interested in his achievements. In fact, his arrival this time has received an unexpected warm reception from Intel.

After waiting for a few days, Intel’s current president Andy Grove personally met him and spoke highly of his research direction as a technical expert-but only highly. That's it.

While giving a high evaluation, Grove also euphemistically hinted at Fujio Masuoka. At present, Intel has encountered a lot of difficulties, and I am afraid that it cannot be done in a direction that, although it looks promising, is extremely variable. Excessive investment, after all, the technology that Fujio Masuoka produced is still quite immature. Whether it is the principle or the process, it is still far from being practical.

Grove even patiently explained the reason to him.

For this reason, Fujio Masuoka himself is also very clear. If you really want to count it, I am afraid that he himself can be regarded as one of the culprits.

Before 1975, the United States could be regarded as the leading country in the semiconductor industry on top of this blue star, and there was no one.

Through investment in the field of military industry and national defense, the Americans took the lead in establishing a world-leading, independent and complete semiconductor industry system on Bluestar. At the same time, they also created a series of silicon transistors, integrated circuits, MOS, CMOS and DRAM. The foundation of semiconductor technology.

Among the large number of semiconductor companies that have emerged, Intel is undoubtedly one of the best.

In 1971, Intel’s engineer Hoff invented the world’s first commercial microprocessor—4004. It was this small chip integrating 2,300 transistors that announced the birth of a great era.

In 1981, as the "IBM" company decided to use Intel's 8088 chip for the central processing unit of its personal computer, Intel also embarked on a leap-forward development.

However, the success of the central processing unit cannot conceal the failure of Intel in another aspect. This aspect is the lifeline of Intel—DRAM, or memory.

Computing and storage have always been the two cores of a computer, and Intel’s efforts and investment in storage can be regarded as a big defeat.

As a semiconductor company, Intel once relied on its leading edge in MOS, transistor and other technologies to occupy up to 82.9% of the market share in the 1K DRAM market!

But the good times did not last long. With the development of technology and the continuous expansion of market demand, 16K, 64K, and 256K DRAMs were continuously introduced to the market. At this time, the Japanese people who promoted the semiconductor industry with the whole country gradually caught up. And quickly achieved a go-ahead. Take this year as an example, when Intel was still complacent that its 16KDRAM could integrate 11,000 transistors, the Japanese had already introduced 64KDRAM through the application of new technologies such as circular bit lines and folded data lines. , The number of integrated transistors on a single chip has increased to 155,000, and its integration level exceeds Intel’s current technical capabilities by 13 times!

This is the so-called "first DRAM war" circulating in the semiconductor industry. American companies represented by Intel Corporation are obviously the losers of this war, and Fujio Masuoka himself, as the director of Toshiba Microelectronics Laboratory , I am afraid that the Americans have long been listed as "war criminals".

At the end of the conversation, Andy Grove even hinted at Fujio Masuoka that Intel is considering selling its storage unit to reduce its continuous losses in the DRAM business. If Toshiba intends to acquire, then the two parties may wish to further contact. ...

This kind of conversation rhythm is obviously very different from Fujio Masuoka's expectations. My personal purpose is to use Intel's power to complete the research and development of "falsh", but Intel actually wants him to be an intermediary. Encouraging Toshiba to acquire Intel's storage division, this result really made him laugh.

So, are you going back disappointedly like this?

He thought, but suddenly the smile of a polite Chinese teenager flashed in his mind.

Zhenhua Jun is also in the San Francisco Bay Area. Even if you are just a friend, you should visit it? What's more, there is still a gentleman's agreement between each other.

He thought, called a taxi, and said in his accented accent: "Go to Stanford."
