The technological empire begins with polymer materials

"The first step of the plan went very well. What are you going to do next?" Liang Shaojie asked Gao Yuan curiously in the office.

Gao Yuan thought for a while and said: "Of course it's about learning, then innovating, and using NVIDIA's technology and experience to defeat NVIDIA. I really can't think of anything more exciting in the world."

"I'm afraid it's not that simple, right?" Liang Shaojie frowned and said, "Just like light tracing technology, it is NVIDIA's original work. Even if our designers can learn it, it will be difficult to surpass the original creator of the technology."

Liang Shaojie's idea was very reliable, but he didn't know that Gao Yuan had a huge amount of knowledge gifted by the system in his head. The reason why he wanted to learn from NVIDIA was mainly to learn from NVIDIA's experience and improve the compatibility of his own GPU.

Once you learn all Nvidia's technology and build it into Kunlun Group's own graphics card, it will be compatible with all games and all software on the market. This is very important.

From a technical perspective, is Windows really irreplaceable?

Absolutely not. Ever since Bill Gates introduced Indian CEOs and recruited a large number of Indian employees, Microsoft's code quality has been declining, the operating system has become increasingly difficult to use, and there are more and more bugs.

Organizing a group of domestic elite programmers and working for three years may not necessarily make them unable to surpass Microsoft, but if the programs are not compatible, there will be no customers to choose from.

Therefore, for Gaoyuan, it is one thing to have black technology, but it is another thing to integrate into the current semiconductor system.

He needs to continue to learn and integrate Nvidia's technology into his own products, so that when the product comes out, everyone can buy it home, install it in the computer host, and use it immediately.

Thinking of this, Gao Yuan smiled and said: "It's not easy, but the silicon wafers used by Western chips are physically online. Taichi Semiconductor is the strongest semiconductor manufacturer on the earth. They use ultraviolet lithography machines. It’s just 0.8 nanometers. If we continue to improve the process technology, silicon-based chips can’t do it, so we can only turn to carbon-based chips, and we are the strongest supplier of carbon-based materials in the world.”

Carbon based!

Liang Shaojie was startled and said: "You mean, when NVIDIA launches a new generation of GPU, you will also launch it, but NVIDIA is a silicon-based chip, and you are carbon-based!"

Gao Yuan nodded slightly and said: "Yes, the economic foundation determines the superstructure, and different materials science foundations will also determine the performance of the chip!"

…

Xu Changning has been studying day and night, and the progress of his studies is much faster than he imagined.

Because Gaoyuan not only obtained NVIDIA's complete architectural blueprint, but also provided the most powerful EDA tool software on the earth, Zero Smart.

Xu Changning was almost moved to tears. This was almost like Gao Yuan was taking the initiative to push himself towards the path of a top semiconductor designer. Not only did he provide powerful learning materials, but he also provided application tools!

If Gao Yuan allocates him another wife and a house, Xu Changning's life will be completely perfect.

After the first few days of observation, the mobile phones have been returned to everyone, and the ban has been lifted. The administrative department has also prepared temporary employee cards for everyone. With the card, you can freely pass through the company, use the free transportation provided by the company, and watch movies. , fitness, swimming, and all recreational activities like the employees of Kunlun Group.

Xu Changning gradually had a feeling that Gao Yuan must be plotting something.

Sure enough, after several days of intense study, they and the team led by Kunlun Group's Chen Tianshi finally came together.

Xu Changning knew for the first time that Kunlun Group's semiconductor design team was much larger than he had imagined.

Quietly, the Kunlun Group expanded wildly. Chen Tianshi already had more than 3,000 people under his command. Adding in the young elites selected from various institutes and national team holding units, the total number of people actually exceeded 6,000.

You must know that these more than 6,000 people are pure semiconductor designers, not including any support staff. Everyone is carefully selected and is the best among designers.

With such a strong force, it can be called the most powerful semiconductor design team on the planet. It has far surpassed Huawei and HiSilicon in its heyday, and also surpassed Qualcomm, Broadcom, Apple, MediaTek, Nvidia, Texas Instruments, STMicroelectronics, and Infineon. Ling, Sari…

You know, the total number of engineers behind the famous Apple A-series processors is only more than a thousand. Qualcomm's Snapdragon series and HiSilicon's Kirin series are all of similar size.

Gao Yuan gathered more than 6,000 semiconductor engineers at one time. What was he going to do?

With everyone looking forward to it, Gao Yuan stepped onto the podium, with Chen Tianshi and Chu Hongfei standing on his side. Chen Tianshi is the manager of the Kunlun Semiconductor team, while Chu Hongfei writes algorithms and serves as the technical director.

Looking at everyone present, Gao Yuan said with a smile: "Two days ago, Mr. Ren from Huawei came to our place and cried to me, saying that HiSilicon had hired nearly a thousand engineers to come to my place, and they were all the youngest and most talented. The potential exists, but his side is now stretched thin, and he will not be able to open the pot."

"I comforted Mr. Ren and said, don't worry, it's not just your HiSilicon that can't uncover the pot now, even the national team and those semiconductor design institutes with numbers can't uncover the pot now!"

"Not only are you young elites from HiSilicon here with me, but now all the best semiconductor engineers that can be found in China are here with me!"

"Total, six thousand four hundred and thirty-nine people!"

After hearing this, everyone was in an uproar.

How come there are so many elite engineers gathered in Kunlun Group?

This is almost the strongest force in the whole of China. What on earth is Gao Yuan going to do when he brings everyone together?

After a pause, Gao Yuan said in a deep voice: "I have already made an agreement with HiSilicon and the major design institutes. During this period of time, everyone can stay here with peace of mind. Let's do something together. After this matter is completed, , If you are willing to return to your original unit, we will send you off and express our gratitude, and if you are willing to stay, we will warmly welcome you."

"Okay, let's get down to business now, let's talk about what exactly is going on."

"The first thing is to design a GPU based on what everyone has learned before."

"People in the world often have misunderstandings about GPUs. They always think that graphics accelerator chips must be used for playing games."

"Actually, this is not the case. There is a huge gap between GPU and CPU, both in architecture and algorithm. Take Bitcoin mining as an example. Mining machines rely on graphics cards to mine. CPUs have completely insufficient computing power in terms of mining. .”

"In addition, GPUs have two important uses, one is for AI training, and the other is a supercomputer based on GPU technology."

"In short, we just have the data and technology at hand, and there is a demand for GPUs in reality. Let alone high-end projects such as supercomputing, it would be great to build the world's most powerful graphics card."

Gao Yuan spoke in a relaxed and funny way, making everyone laugh.

"More than good! I have always dreamed of a super powerful graphics card!"

"Yes, yes! If there is such a graphics card, who the hell would want a little sister!"

"Boss Gao, please rest assured. With so much information prepared, designing a graphics card is not easy."

"That's right, Boss Gao is making a fuss out of a molehill. If such a huge team is needed, just three to five hundred people will be enough!"

With a smile on his face, Gao Yuan stood on the stage and listened to everyone's speech. Then he shook his head and said, "Everyone, this matter is really not as simple as you think. That's why I tried my best to build such a large team."

"It's because the chip we are designing this time is not based on traditional silicon, but is based on carbon nanotube technology."
