    From the perspective of the development of computer chip technology, the microprocessors that appeared in the 1970s (such as Intel's 8080) are still in the 8-bit era, and they mainly rely on assembly language to write programs, which are relatively simple and require less investment.

    Gordon Moore, chairman of Intel Corporation, believes that the development of next-generation computer chips will be the lifeline of Intel. Therefore, he hired the top doctor of computer science in the United States and convened a group of elites to conduct in-depth research on the next-generation computer integrated circuit chips.

    Within Intel Corporation, the most important computer architecture project is named; 8800.

    This is the most ambitious development plan for the entire 1980s. It has 32-bit-based addressing capabilities, object-oriented architecture, variable-bit-length instructions, and the operating tradition written in the latest programming language ada.

    Intel's ambitious plan envisioned 52 weeks to develop the new "8800" design and build the chip.

    Due to the poor development of the project, Intel was forced to start an emergency replacement work in Santa Clara (Silicon Valley), striving to launch a temporary 16-bit microprocessor instead in 1979.

    In view of the tight schedule, the firefighting team actually expanded the 8080's 8-bit registers and instruction set to 16-bit, and finally completed the design of this isa in 3 regular working weeks with only 10 people. It seems unimaginable now  , named "8086" chip after the development is completed.

    It needs to be mentioned here that Dr. Gary Sinise, who presided over the development, is the person in charge of this ten-member team. He has won high praise from the industry for his outstanding work, and has stood on the altar in one fell swoop.

    Using the 8086 version of the chip, ibm launched a new desktop computer on August 12, 1981. It originally planned to sell 250,000 computers by 1986, playing the role of emergency team members.

    In fact, as of 1989, IBM has sold 100 million computers of this type worldwide, and the market has achieved great success. The substitute players have become the main force, paving the way for a very bright future for Intel chips.

    Inspired by the success, Intel Corporation expanded the 16-bit 8086 chip. This important research work was still presided over by Dr. Gary Sinise himself.  need.

    Amidst the flowers and applause, there was a discordant voice.

    Due to differences in technical concepts, Intel's top executives and Dr. Gary Sinise, head of the R&D team, had conflicts and became increasingly irreconcilable.

    These situations have appeared in many successful projects, requiring sufficient mediation skills and skills, and things will not get out of hand.

    It is a pity that due to the incompatibility of ideas and the lack of emotional intelligence, Dr. Gary Sinise and Intel's direct boss Medellin fell out and became incompatible.

    This kind of competition in the workplace is not what Dr. Gary Sinise, who is obsessed with research, is good at.

    ?The result proved this point, the earth would spin without anyone, and he was swept out of the house in despair.

    In 1989, Dr. Gary Sinise joined the University of California, Berkeley, during which time he published the book "Computer Architecture: Quantitative Research Methods".

    The theme of the book is:

    Use measurement methods and benchmarks for quantitative evaluation, rather than relying on the architect's intuition and experience as before.

    This is a must-have Bible for high-tech researchers in Silicon Valley. It won the Turing Award in the second year, establishing Dr. Gary Sinise's lofty status in the industry.

    The problem is that in this highly monopolized industry, Intel Corporation did not speak up, and Dr. Gary Sinise could not find a suitable company to hire him to engage in cutting-edge research in the field of computer chips.

    Even in the United States, apart from Intel and Texas Instruments, several companies with deep foundations in this industry dominate the industry. In 1993, amd was still at the technical stage of 386cpu, and 4865cpu had not yet been introduced to the market. It was two generations behind the previous two leading companies.  Many small and medium-sized enterprises are unable to get involved in cutting-edge research in the field of chips, and most of them adopt follow-up strategies.

    The monopoly and oligarchic structure in the high-tech field has left Dr. Gary Sinise with nowhere to display his skills. He was excluded from this narrow circle and could only engage in teaching and research work at the University of California, Berkeley.

    This pattern was still subtly maintained until Red Hat intervened.

    The research on computer chips is highly specialized and costly, and it is not a game that small and medium-sized companies can afford.

    ?Because of Moore's Law, the design and production of semiconductor chips are becoming more and more complex and expensive, and a single company often cannot bear the high R&D and production costs.

    1960???Seize the market monopolized by Intel Corporation and open up a living space for AMD Corporation.

    Nowadays, the brand name Wang Yaocheng is used first, AMD can only think of other catchy and beautiful names.

    Wang Yaocheng has never had any psychological burden on doing this kind of thing that is beneficial but not costly.

    "Now that it's decided, you'll be in charge of taking the lead on this matter, let the company's legal follow-up, a series of company registration and other legal issues will be resolved by them, the accounting audit will go through the procedures as soon as possible, and the subsequent capital investment will be used as the share capital of Red Hat.  Jin, the corresponding company management must be in accordance with the standards of listed companies, and get on the right track as soon as possible.¡±

    Qi Yafei took over another arduous task, so that his entrepreneurial spirit was stimulated again, he drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp, and said simply: "Okay, I will start to do it immediately."

    Red Hat was so lucky that it was able to attract Dr. Gary Sinise, an academic expert, to join. The opportunity is very rare.

    For such a research madman, as long as there are no differences in scientific and technological concepts, in fact, technical research does not need to intervene too much, all that needs to be done is to provide the best research conditions.

    In the United States, large companies like Intel have bloated organizations, prevailing office culture, and competition for interests is full of more intrigues.

    ? Intel Corporation, with its profound scientific and technological background, has an endless stream of academic experts. Dr. Medellin, the supervisor of the project, is a senior expert, and his academic status in the computer field is no less than that of Dr. Gary Sinise.

    On the issue of how to develop a new generation of VLSI, whether to choose high performance or low power consumption, and how to balance the relationship between the two affect the dominant direction of architecture design, which can be said to be a collision of scientific and technological development concepts.

    ? As academic giants, Dr. Medellin and Dr. Gary Sinise refused to give in to each other on issues of right and wrong related to the academic line. If the conflict sparks touch the earth, one of them must leave.

    The contradiction between the two parties lies in the difference in scientific and technological concepts. There is no distinction between who is right and who is wrong. All roads lead to Rome. This is a multiple choice question, and there is no middle way to avoid.

    Accepting the appointment of Red Hat, Dr. Gary Sinise came with deep resentment and full of ambition, just to prove that his academic path is correct, to build a monument for himself, and to fight back against the ruthless abandonment of his old employer, Intel Corporation.

    Wang Yaocheng is happy to see this, and at the same time, create the best research conditions for Dr. Gary Sinise.

    Their purpose is the same;

    ? Has developed a microprocessor chip that has reached or even exceeded the international advanced level, and has completely self-controlled patents, bringing more choices to the world.

    Wang Yaocheng needs a powerful microprocessor chip to realize his dream, and Dr. Gary Sinise also needs it to prove himself. This is related to the persistence of the academic line and the competition for academic status in the field, which should not be underestimated.

    For the young Red Hat company, even Professor Sun Zhongxiu and Qian Fu of Jinling University, in front of Dr. Gary Sinise, a leading figure in the field of computer chips, is still a process of in-depth study, and naturally it is impossible to compete academically.

    ?Reducing internal friction, Chinese researchers have always been known for their rigorousness, steadfastness, and diligence. All of them devote themselves to research projects, and naturally progress rapidly, and continuously obtain key innovative patent results.

    The location of Red Hat is really good. It is less than 3,000 meters away from the headquarters of Intel Corporation, close to Stanford University, and nearby are famous research universities such as the University of California, Berkeley.  middle.

    Whether it is top talents, scientific and technological experimental equipment, abundant funds, the latest scientific and technological information, high-end research results are all available, which is very suitable for the development of research-oriented high-tech companies.

    Standing at the gate of the company and waving, at least three of the ten people who turn back are PhDs, five postgraduates, the remaining one is the boss of a start-up company, and the last one may be a college student who delivers pizza during a work-study program.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
