In order to upgrade to a bachelor's degree: Master the photolithography machine technology at the beginning - Chapter 484
c478 Academician Wu, Mr. Wu
After this major crisis, China has entered a relatively safe period.
Although some countries in the world are still eyeing China with covetous eyes, these do not pose a threat to China.
The United States, after experiencing this incident, has obviously kept a low profile.
The promises made to China last time have been fulfilled one by one.
Some countries are even wondering why the United States is now so courteous to China that it has even released its chip patents for exclusive use by China.
However, with the consistent style of the United States, everyone is not surprised.
Today I may still be friends with you, but tomorrow we won’t be. This is America.
But China’s purpose is not here.
The reason for negotiating these conditions with the United States is to make the other party feel that they are seeking profit. This will not make them feel that China still has hatred in its heart.
They believe that as long as the benefits are sufficient, China can forget about it.
But they forget that China is different from other countries. They contain historical heritage that no other country has.
If this kind of hatred of destroying the country can be settled with just a little benefit, then what do you think of China?
Under various attacks from the United States, China understands that only by relying on itself can it be invincible.
Otherwise, no matter how tall or beautiful a building is, as long as the foundation is someone else’s, it can collapse at any time.
Therefore, as early as a year ago, China had developed a photolithography machine through the technology provided by Liu Cong.
So far, the process technology of Huaxia lithography machines has been moving towards 3nm, and a breakthrough may be made at any time.
After that incident, China took the semiconductor industry very seriously.
Even stock markets such as semiconductors have increased countless times.
…………
…………
Today, Liu Cong was invited to visit the China Semiconductor Research Institute.
Hundreds of years ago, due to the suppression of the United States, China Semiconductor’s life was difficult.
But looking at it now, with all the new equipment and the smiles on everyone’s faces, how could we know what their situation was like a year ago.
When Liu Cong got out of the car, there were many security personnel setting up a cordon outside.
Liu Cong is now a well-known big shot, and security will definitely be high wherever he goes.
The person who came to meet Liu Cong in person today was Academician Wu Qingfeng of the China Semiconductor Research Institute.
Liu Cong looked at the silver-haired old man in front of him and stepped forward to shake hands with him.
“Mr. Wu, I’m glad to see you. Could you please come to meet me in person this time?”
Liu Cong was very polite to Academician Wu, and this old man deserved Liu Cong’s treatment of him.
More than ten or twenty years ago, Mr. Wu, who was still in his fifties, risked his own life to return to the embrace of his Chinese mother and engage in the semiconductor industry.
At that time, Mr. Wu’s annual salary at a semiconductor research institute in the United States was only 5 million.
You know what five million yuan meant at that time.
That is more than the current annual salary of 50 million Chinese coins.
For the future of Huaxia Semiconductor, Mr. Wu has to come back even under the huge pressure from there. How courageous it takes to come back.
At that time, the domestic semiconductor industry was in a sluggish state, and people did not pay attention to this industry.
The Hanxin incident in the past few years has directly pushed the semiconductor industry into a huge trend.
So for many years, everyone thought that doing semiconductors and chips was a lie.
This made Mr. Wu’s research and development progress difficult, so that he could hardly get any scientific research expenses later.
Later, Huaxia Semiconductor Research Institute was about to close down. Mr. Wu ignored the opposition of his family and invested all his savings in it.
At that time, Mr. Wu seemed to be drowned in everyone’s ridicule and abuse, but he didn’t care about the comments from the outside world.
Later, under the sanctions of the United States, Mr. Wu stepped forward and directly provided everyone with 22nm chips to help.
Although the 22nm chip is a process technology that has been available in foreign countries for more than ten years, this 22nm chip is enough to allow everyone to get through this cold winter safely in a short period of time.
Only then did the superiors realize the seriousness of the matter.
In order to prevent China’s semiconductor industry from stagnating, the authorities began to look for high-tech talents in this area.
However, how many talents will there be in this industry that was originally not considered promising?
Just when everyone felt despair and regret, Mr. Wu stood up.
You know, he is now in his seventies, and it is not easy to stand up and fight again.
The reason why Liu Cong respected Mr. Wu so much started from that time. ,
Mr. Wu was also very happy when he saw Liu Cong, “Academician Liu, I have wanted to meet you for a long time, but the institute has many things to do every day, so it has been delayed.”
“But when we met today, you are more handsome than you look in the picture!”
The first time Mr. Wu met Liu Cong, he felt an inexplicable and wonderful feeling of intimacy.
“Mr. Wu, you praise me too much.”
Mr. Wu was a little embarrassed to talk about himself in front of so many people.
“Academician Liu, let’s go in!!”
Mr. Wu put his arm around Liu Cong’s shoulders like he was an old friend, and Liu Cong didn’t feel disgusted at all. Instead, he felt extremely cordial.
This is probably the sympathy between scientific researchers.
This time Liu Cong came here mainly to discuss the future development direction of National Semiconductor.
Although the American chip patent has been opened up, everyone with a discerning eye knows that they cannot be fooled again, otherwise it will be difficult to have a chance to make a comeback this time.
In the future, if Liu Cong wants to develop space, the algorithms and requirements for the chip must be very high.
Just relying on current semiconductor technology is far from enough.
Therefore, if we want to have better development in the future, we must lay a solid foundation.
In this way, development will not stop due to various minor reasons during the development process, which is something Liu Cong does not want to see.
With the camera following them, Liu Cong and Mr. Wu entered the exhibition hall of the institute.
Various representative semiconductor equipment are displayed here.
The most eye-catching thing is the 5nm lithography machine developed at the Huaqing University Research Institute at that time.
It was because of this photolithography machine that China had no chips available, and finally entered the forefront of the world’s semiconductor industry.
“Academician Liu, this is the 96nm lithography machine we developed ourselves at the beginning of this century. At that time, our team spent a lot of time and energy on it to study this.”
“Our first domestic computer used a 0.13 micron process technology.”
Mr. Wu was very happy to introduce this lithography machine to Liu Cong, with his eyes full of pride.
You know, as early as 2000, many new computers used the 40-nanometer process technology.
As for the 0.13 micron chip manufacturing process, other developed countries had it as early as the 1970s and 1980s.
However, this kind of development experience is too important to China.
