Reborn in 1984: Starting with the Development of Chinese Character Cards, Chapter 106: Laying Out Flash Memory. The next day, Zhao Ye was informed by his superiors that the land purchase had been approved by vote, and 50 hectares of land around Lujiazui would be sold to Wujiang Group.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ye was overjoyed and expressed his deepest gratitude to the leader, stating that he would continue his efforts to generate foreign exchange for the country.
That afternoon, Zhao Ye signed a land sale agreement with the government.
Fortunately, the area around Lujiazui is relatively barren, making the relocation work simpler.
At that time, there were no holdouts. If the leaders told you to move, would you dare not move? If you didn't move, you were considered to be hindering national development.
The government's execution capabilities are exceptionally strong at this time!
Of course, the local residents are quite aware of the situation, and the relocation conditions are also quite good.
"The leaders told us to move, of course we're willing to move! Supporting national development is our duty! What's more, Wujiang Group not only compensated us financially, but also promised to build us beautiful modern buildings, and give us priority to work at the Wujiang factory. You have no idea how envious people in other parts of Pudong are when they hear this news!!!" A middle-aged man being relocated said with a broad smile to the relocation management personnel.
"Hmm, not bad, high level of awareness. You guys are lucky to have caught a good opportunity."
"Yes, Pudong is such a desolate place. It would be great if we could move to Puxi!"
"You wish! There are new residential buildings being built here in Pudong, called [building name], to make it easier for you to get to work at the Wujiang factory. There's also a shopping supermarket! You know what a shopping supermarket is? It's a huge department store with almost everything. You can buy groceries and snacks there, and the things there are cheaper than in other stores!"
The middle-aged man grinned and chuckled: "I've heard people talk about supermarkets, but I've never seen one."
...
In Zhao Ye's office, Liu Yinyin walked over and whispered, "Boss, 10 construction companies have arrived and construction has already begun!"
“Okay, I’ll go check on the construction site when I have some free time,” Zhao Ye replied.
In order to develop the newly purchased land as soon as possible, Zhao Ye contacted ten powerful construction companies in China and asked them to come and build the factory together.
In just about a week, countless construction equipment were moved to the area around Lujiazui, and thousands of construction workers began to get busy.
At this time, the sun was blazing, and the area around Lujiazui had become a huge construction site. The workers, dressed in short sleeves and t-shirts, were drenched in sweat, but they still worked very hard.
The faster the project progresses, the higher the bonus.
Such a good thing is rare to see normally; it only happens with wealthy and generous private enterprises like Wujiang Group.
thing.
Zhao Ye did indeed need them to finish building the factory as soon as possible; expanding the Wujiang factory's production was an urgent matter.
Now, Wujiang Factory has implemented a three-shift system, so that while people rest, the machines never stop.
With its production capacity exploding, monthly output can reach 2.25 million units.
However, this production capacity is still insufficient when facing the global market.
Selling 20 to 30 million game consoles a year is no problem.
In just a few years, the Famicom sold 70 to 80 million game consoles.
Its performance is much stronger than the FC, its game cartridges have the MMC graphics enhancement chip, and the games it develops are also very classic. In addition, there is the linkage effect of anime and manga. Therefore, surpassing the FC is not a problem.
As the number of games continued to increase, Nintendo's third-party game developers flocked to the platform. At that point, the balance of power shifted dramatically!
Large-scale infrastructure projects have a significant stimulating effect on the economy.
Wujiang Group has made outstanding contributions to Shanghai, which will not be discussed further here.
...
Meanwhile, Loongson Design Company's memory chip design project made great progress.
The design and development of memory chips mainly involves two aspects: the development of main memory and the development of flash memory.
The main differences between RAM and flash memory are:
Flash memory is a form of electronically erasable programmable read-only memory that allows for multiple erasures and writes during operation. It is primarily used for general data storage, such as memory cards and USB flash drives. Wujiang Group's Chinese character cards, typewriters, and game cartridges also extensively utilize EPROM.
Memory is one of the most important components in a computer; it acts as a bridge between external storage and the CPU. It temporarily stores data for CPU operations, as well as data exchanged with external storage devices such as hard drives. As long as the computer is running, the CPU loads the data it needs to process into memory for computation, and then sends the results back out after the computation is complete. The operation of memory is crucial to the stable operation of the computer.
This progress is mainly due to the independent development of the EPROM chip. Because Wujiang Group currently has a large demand for EPROM, it has always imported it from abroad, which wastes a lot of foreign exchange and is also expensive.
A tiny EPROM chip can actually sell for tens of dollars.
The actual production cost is less than 10 yuan.
Zhao Ye could not tolerate being exploited by foreign chip companies, so when researching memory chips, he mainly focused on developing flash memory. EPROM technology was relatively underdeveloped, so he developed that first.
Inside the laboratory, everyone cheered with joy.
Zhao Ye smiled and said, "We'll conduct testing immediately, then go to the wafer fab for tape-out, and strive to achieve mass production of EPROM chips as soon as possible!"
"Yes!" everyone responded in unison.
Zhao Ye returned to his office, not letting his joy cloud his judgment; EPROM was just the foundation. At that moment, he was pondering the next step.
