Netizens who turned on their TV to watch the live broadcast of the radio station were discussing the event with their fellow netizens on the forum on their computers while watching the live broadcast on the screen.
"What are these foreigners talking about?"
"I don't understand foreign languages, but I can feel that they deserve a beating."
"Is there anyone who knows what this means?"
"... Let me explain, although I'm a little confused. As we all know, the best chips in the world now are silicon-based chips. Both the operating speed and power consumption are currently the best in the world, and they are widely used in aerospace and high-precision machine tools. And the carbon-based chips that Mr. Si just mentioned, if I may be frank, are something that only exists in theory... Do you know nano? It is a high-tech that has only become popular in recent years. Carbon-based chips are made of carbon nanotubes, which are only ideal transistor materials... The difficulty involved is so great that just thinking about it makes people dizzy."
"Wait, I remember that we couldn't even make a photolithography machine for manufacturing silicon-based chips before? How could we possibly come up with something so epoch-making all of a sudden?"
"So you mean, Si Qi is lying?"
"Nonsense! Mr. Si would never lie!"
"If this is a lie, then we are really embarrassed."
"Stop talking, I'm starting to panic."
On the other side of the screen, Si Qi glanced at the people who were laughing wildly below, and said coldly and bluntly: "Be quiet. If you want to disrupt the press conference, just get out, or I'll have someone throw you out."
"OK, OK, since you are an internationally renowned mathematician, we are willing to patiently listen to your carefully woven fairy tale." The executives raised their hands in surrender and sneered: "After all, this kind of farce is not common."
"No, you can see it even if you spend some money to go to the circus." Another person laughed.
The assistant who came out with the test equipment looked at Si Qi innocently and asked quietly if they could start.
Si Qi looked at the foreigners below with contempt. His arrogant look froze their faces and made all the Chinese people tremble with indescribable excitement.
They subconsciously slowed down their breathing and waited silently for Si Qi's next words.
Facing the camera, Si Qi held up two chips of different sizes and thicknesses in his hand, and after stating the most basic performance with the help of the data analysis on the large screen behind him, he went straight to the point and said calmly and clearly: "Compared with traditional silicon-based chips, our Chinese carbon-based chips are 16% smaller in size, 3mm thinner, and the operating speed is increased by ten to twelve times, and the power consumption is reduced by 10%! It perfectly meets the demand for ultra-low power chips and is the most advanced chip at the moment, without a doubt."
Listening to Si Qi's calm tone and saying these precise numbers, the foreign executives below maintained a disdainful expression on their faces, but a hint of suspicion quietly emerged in their eyes.
Si Qi is a world-renowned mathematician. His academic dignity is equivalent to his international status to a certain extent.
No one will respect a scholar who lies and does whatever it takes to achieve his goals, especially in the most rigorous field of mathematics. This kind of lying behavior will become more and more shameful.
In order to save the reputation of his own country, he told such a big lie in front of the whole world. Anyone with a brain would not do such a stupid thing that would do more harm than good.
And the overly familiar test instrument next to Si Qi made several executives have a bad premonition at the same time.
"It's just nonsense." An executive deliberately mocked loudly: "How can there be such an advanced chip in the world? It can only be manufactured in at least a hundred years!"
Si Qi sneered, and without saying anything, he placed the two chips on the test instruments respectively. The projector behind him then displayed the current status of the two instruments.
He made a "look" gesture to the camera, staring at the guy who was talking nonsense below, with his hands on his shoulders, smiling, waiting for the show to start.
This fearless look made several executives more and more uneasy.
In this uneasy mood, everyone can clearly see that the two instruments are running the same set of test procedures. As the test content became more and more complicated, the temperature of the silicon-based chip on the left quickly rose to the critical point, and began to experience jamming, frame drops, stagnation, etc. After three seconds, it stopped and completely lost its function.
However, the small, light and thin carbon-based chip on the right was still running smoothly and efficiently. It ran through the entire set of test procedures quickly, and its speed was ten times that of the silicon-based chip on the left. There was no temperature change throughout the whole process, indicating that this level of testing was easy for it.
Such a sharp contrast stunned everyone present, and even laymen could clearly feel the difference.
The executives below jumped up and yelled, "This is impossible! You must be cheating!"
Si Qi was not in a hurry. He raised his chin and asked his assistant to swap the two chips on the spot. After the silicon chip recovered its temperature, the program was rerun again, and the result was exactly the same as before.
The executives' eyes widened, their faces flushed, and they kept saying, "This is impossible, this is impossible!"
However, the facts were in front of them. Even if they couldn't accept it, they could clearly feel how powerful the small chip was just by seeing the complex program run quickly in a very short time.
On the other side of the ocean, the senior executives of the semiconductor company who were sitting in front of the TV waiting to see the joke could not laugh at this moment. They were stiff in place with dull expressions, and their faces were full of shock and disbelief.
Those with poorer mental qualities turned pale, and fell off the sofa in a daze, as if they had foreseen a devastating disaster.
They all knew that behind this small chip, there was an extremely terrifying meaning.
With one test after another, the Chinese media at the press conference became more and more excited, and the excitement could be felt through the screen.
Several executives of major manufacturers, who were locked in the camera, stared at Si Qi on the podium with sullen faces, as if they had some deep hatred for him. Rage, resistance, gnashing of teeth... The complex expressions made it difficult for foreign audiences to accept, but made domestic audiences cheer loudly and exclaimed that it was refreshing!
The more depressed they were before, the more relieved they felt when they saw the executives' faces collapse.
This press conference that shocked all the audience quickly spread across the entire Internet through the promotion of netizens, and entered the eyes of various countries at the first time.
The whole world witnessed the whole process of the incident.
First, several major countries jointly refused to sell chips to China, and forcibly restricted China's development by physical sanctions. China had no way to deal with it.
Then China disappeared for a month, being laughed at, ridiculed, and despised by everyone, until today, a month later, when it announced a press conference.
Everyone was waiting to see the joke of China, but they made a big splash at the press conference without saying a word. They showed the world the finished carbon-based chip that the high-tech powers dared not even think about. Note, it was the finished product!
It was not showing off data or launching semi-finished carbon nanotubes to scare a group of people. Instead, when the whole world was laughing at China for not being able to make even a photolithography machine and having to rely on imports for even a chip, China directly walked in front of the world, achieved overtaking on the curve, and left those so-called powers behind by countless stages in one breath!
When everyone thought that carbon-based chips were just an unattainable fantasy, China slapped those people in the face with facts, telling the world that those who once looked down on them, it is not that we in China cannot manufacture photolithography machines, nor that we must rely on imported chips for scientific research, but that we have something better that we have not yet brought out! That
's the wonderful thing.
Do you think that our technology is backward and we can't even handle a photolithography machine?
Joke, bypass the photolithography machine, we directly make a more powerful one!
Some quick-thinking people immediately realized the deeper meaning behind this, and were immediately frightened by China's ambitions and took a breath of cold air.
——Can China, which can manufacture carbon-based chips, not handle a mere photolithography machine? Of course it's impossible! On the contrary, they think that even if they make photolithography machines, they will only compete with those semiconductor giants that have already formed a fixed ecological circle for a share of the cake, so they simply bypass the photolithography machines that those giants rely on for survival, use technology that even photolithography machines cannot handle, and make more advanced carbon-based chips, replan the entire ecological environment, and become the boss themselves!
This is China's real purpose!
From beginning to end, China never thought about catching up with others and joining the arena for scientific competitions. They directly built a new track, forcing everyone to join in, just like those people forced China to do so before.
Since then, the positions of upstream and downstream have been completely reversed. This time, it is China's turn to be the high and mighty upstream, watching the people behind catch up with it with a smile.
Those who once imposed a technological blockade on China, now it is their turn to taste the taste of being blocked by technology.
Want to study carbon-based chips? Do you know the design ideas and understand how to make such fine carbon-based components? Do you have the machinery and equipment to manufacture such components?
Nothing, then it depends on our mood, prepare the money and see if we are willing to sell it to you!
It can be imagined that when the new chip comes out, the once high-end silicon-based chips will become completely garbage, without any continued production and research value.
The lithography machines hidden by those countries have become garbage that is given away for nothing, but others think it takes up space, and can only be sold by kilogram as waste.
But before the end of the press conference, Si Qi deliberately left a meaningful sentence that aroused heated discussions among countless people.
"Carbon-based chips are just the beginning. One month later, China will bring greater surprises to the world."
The author has something to say:
--It
's time to start the counterattack.
