Chapter 327 Tape-out Success



More than two hours later, the plane landed at Beijing International Airport.

The cargo on the transport plane will be transported directly to the Mi Technology Park by truck.

On the plane, Mr. Ren explained it to Yu Dazui.

Yu Dazui was shocked at the time. His peers were actually far ahead this time?

I followed Mr. Lei to the Science and Technology Park with half belief and half doubt.

"Let's go, Mr. Ren, Big Mouth, try our company's cafeteria. I'll go call Mu Yang." President Lei said after returning to the Science and Technology Park.

"Let's go together. It's a good opportunity to meet this young talent." said Mr. Ren.

At this time, Chen Muyang was discussing the wedding with Song Zhuer, and Song Zhuer's parents said that everything should be kept simple.

At that time, I will rent a hotel in the county to serve as my mother's home, and then Chen Muyang will go to pick her up and take her home.

Except for relatives and very close friends, no one else will be invited.

However, Chen Muyang felt that since this was the only chance in his life, the wedding had to be grand and splendid.

"Okay, wife, just listen to me on this matter. I won't let you down." Chen Muyang said.

"Okay then." Song Zhuer smiled sweetly over there.

"I have something to do here, so I should be home tomorrow."

"Okay, then you go get busy, husband."

After hanging up the video, Chen Muyang stood up and looked at the three top figures in the domestic science and technology field who were approaching him.

"Mr. Ren, Mr. Yu, hello, I've heard a lot about you." Chen Muyang shook hands with Mr. Ren with both hands, and then shook hands with Yu Dazui.

"Haha, hello. We must have heard of you for a long time. You have quietly developed a lithography machine that is ahead of other countries. Young people nowadays are really amazing." Grandpa Ren said with a smile, with some kindness.

"Let's go, go eat first, and then we can talk while we eat." said Mr. Lei.

"There's no rush to eat. Can we take a look at something first?" Yu Dazui was in no mood to eat.

On the way here, he believed it was true, but on the other hand he didn't believe that Mi Company could develop it.

"Yes, you can eat whatever you want. If you don't take a look at it, you can't eat." Mr. Ren also agreed.

President Lei looked at Chen Muyang helplessly: "Muyang, take Mr. Ren and President Yu to take a look. I'll go to the cafeteria to ask the chef to make some good dishes."

Chen Muyang smiled and said, "Okay, come with me. I'll have to trouble you two to put on your dust-free suits."

When Mr. Ren and Yu Dazui put on dust-free suits and walked into the workshop, they were stunned for a moment when they saw the two huge monsters in front of them.

"This...was developed by you alone?" Yu Dazui stuttered.

"Basically, it took me more than half a year to get it done."

Hearing Chen Muyang's affirmative words, Yu Dazui took a deep breath, speechless, and just gave Chen Muyang a thumbs up with both hands.

“Awesome!”

"I call it an ultra-high-speed electron electrolithography machine. It has a high-energy particle accelerator and a beam generator inside. Combined with the intelligent control of the rifle system, it transforms high-speed electrons into an electro-optical knife with a precision of up to 0.5nm. However, I haven't designed the chip yet, so I can only use your company's Kirin chip. After all, it's an extremely good chip."

Chen Muyang briefly explained the principle to the two.

"That's great, young man!" said Mr. Ren.

The two did not ask Chen Muyang in depth why he was able to develop it. Everyone has his own unknown secrets.

"Mr. Ren, Mr. Yu, we've seen it. Let's go eat first. We'll come to tape out the film after dinner." Chen Muyang looked at the time. It was already twelve o'clock in the afternoon.

It's not that Mr. Lei is stingy and doesn't want to invite everyone out for dinner, it's just that everyone is very excited and doesn't want to go out at all. They just want to finish their meal early and go to the tape-out test early.

"Mr. Ren, Mr. Dazui, thank you for your hard work today." Mr. Lei said during the meal.

"With such a good thing, I can run every day." Yu Dazui said with a smile.

"Mr. Lei, Mr. Chen, I wonder how much this one costs?" Mr. Ren suddenly asked.

President Lei and Chen Muyang exchanged a glance and said, "Let Muyang tell you."

"Including raw materials and labor, it's about 3 billion." Chen Muyang calculated that the materials prepared by President Lei were almost several hundred million, and then adding his time cost and R&D cost, the total cost was actually less than 3 billion. He said it was a bit high.

Mr. Ren secretly calculated that ASML's latest three-nanometer EUV lithography machine costs about US$400 million, which is not expensive in comparison.

However, the selling price of the EUV lithography machine will definitely be higher. The most important thing is that even if ASML offers 10 billion, the Americans will prevent ASML from selling it to China.

President Lei was thinking that 12% of the shares were no longer suitable for Chen Muyang, and he had to become the second largest shareholder of Mi Company.

After the meal, no one wanted to take a nap.

So I went straight to the workshop.

The chip raw materials have been delivered to the workshop with dust-free contact throughout the process.

"Shall we start then?" Chen Muyang looked at them.

"Let's start!" Mr. Ren nodded.

Zhang Yan was helping Chen Muyang.

"Mr. Yu, please import your chip design drawings into the program." Chen Muyang pointed to a port.

"This time we bring the latest Kirin, which was developed in the past few years due to sanctions. It is still a 5nm SoC, but its theoretical computing power is no less than Apple's A16."

Yu Dazui took out the notebook he carried with him and started to operate.

"How much raw materials are there?" Chen Muyang asked.

"Raw materials for 100,000 chips."

"That's pretty fast. It can be done in more than an hour." Chen Muyang nodded.

The EUV lithography machine can produce more than 70,000 Kirin 9000 chips in an hour, and this is without taking into account the availability rate. The yield rate is generally around 90%.

Chen Muyang pressed the start button and the machine started running, but there was no sound at all, it was silent throughout the whole process.

After a while, the first chip came out.

The chip, the size of a fingernail, integrates 20 billion transistors. The 8-core CPU adopts a 1+3+4 architecture design, plus a 24-core GPU. Its theoretical performance is about 60% higher than the previous generation Kirin 9000.

"It's true, it's true!" Yu Dazui held the chip and huddled together with Mr. Lei, muttering to himself.

"From now on, the Americans will no longer be able to sanction us!"

Mr. Ren's eyes were moist.

An hour later, much earlier than expected, all 100,000 chips were taped out, with only a few dozen lost, which was almost negligible.

"It seems that this equipment can produce about 100,000 chips in an hour, which is 20,000 more than I budgeted." Chen Muyang was driving the one he assembled himself today. The errors in each component should be extremely small and negligible.
