Intel was anxious and angry. They thought they could deal with this problem slowly, but they didn't expect that the defect of the Pentium chip would be exposed just three months after it was on the market.
Moreover, the newspaper that broke the news about Intel chip problems published an article about Pentium chips for the third time, claiming that the computing problems of Pentium processors have caused immeasurable losses to some companies and demanded compensation from Intel. It also said that this was only a problem discovered in Pentium chips and there may be other major defects that have not been discovered. The final conclusion was that Pentium was a failed chip.
Juhua Daily was the first to disclose Pentium's defects, and then published two articles in succession to add insult to injury to Pentium. While increasing its own popularity, it also made Intel extremely embarrassed and furious.
But there is no point in getting angry. They are not spreading rumors about you. You do have problems yourself, and you won't win in court.
When Intel was in a mess, Huaguang Electronics quietly conducted another wafer test.
Huaguang No. 1 was successfully taped out on the first try. Although the instruction set was changed this time, it was still successfully taped out on the first try because of the previous foundation.
Wan Feng firmly believed that his rebirth had brought him good luck. He knew in advance how to deal with some things, but things like tape-outs were of no use to him or her, as it all depended on luck.
Chip tape-out is simply a bottomless pit of money. Even in the 1990s, when the manufacturing process had not yet reached such a high-tech level, a single tape-out would cost millions. If the tape-out failed, millions of yuan would be wasted.
Wanfeng's luck is so good that both Huaguang No. 1 chips were successfully taped out at once.
After Intel's chip problem was exposed, computers equipped with Pentium chips on the market were collectively dumbfounded, and their sales plans were all messed up.
All computer companies urgently removed computers equipped with Pentium processors.
This gave Huaguang Computer, which had been experiencing mediocre sales, an opportunity to break through and its sales began to increase.
Huaguang computers themselves were 7,000 to 10,000 yuan cheaper than others, and their performance was not much lower than that of 486 computers. After the Pentium chip computer became popular, Huaguang became the sales king of China's computer market.
After Wang Desheng returned home, it took only one week for the Dongfang 100 model monitor they produced to be officially offline.
In this way, Huaguang Computer finally made some profit.
At this time, the graduation season for major colleges and universities has arrived again.
A group of people appeared at the gates of various technical colleges in the north. They held banners and set up chairs, patiently answering questions from recent graduates.
Their banner reads the slogan "Bohai Nanwan Group welcomes you to join us, let us create brilliance together."
These people are of course from the public relations department of Nanwan Group. Many of them are college students who have come to Nanwan Group in the past. They were seconded by Zhou Liming to persuade his younger classmates to come to Nanwan Group based on their own personal experiences.
Nanwan Group offers generous benefits to these college students. The basic salary for fresh university graduates in the first year is 500 yuan, the basic salary for master's students is 800 yuan, and the basic salary for doctoral students is 1,000 yuan.
The salary increases every year, and there is also a bonus of no less than two thousand yuan every year.
Of course, there are also various levels of bonuses for scientific research achievements, ranging from 200,000 to 5 million.
After more than half a month of hard work, the results were quite brilliant.
During this year's recruitment season, Nanwan Group recruited a total of 560 science and engineering college students from within Beiliao Province and 350 from outside the province.
This year, we enrolled more than 900 college students, including more than a dozen master's and doctoral students.
At the same time, Shanghai Huaguang Electronics also recruited more than 200 students from prestigious universities such as Jiaotong University and Shanghai University.
Almost all of these college students entered the R&D department.
Nanwan Group's scientific research building finally no longer looks empty, and there is a bit of bustling traffic.
Wan Feng believes that based on this year's enrollment scale, he will be able to build a new research building in three years.
You can’t wait until three years later to plan, you should plan now.
The scientific research base must be located in a place with mountains, water and an elegant environment.
Wan Feng's eyes immediately fell on the small hill at the rubber dam in Dapu Village, Gushan Township.
The height of the hill is estimated to be around 50 meters above sea level, with a downhill slope on the east side and a mountain range on the south side connected to the Dongshan Industrial Zone.
To the north and west is the Inn River, which forms a bay here and embraces the hill.
The top of the mountain is a slope with dense trees, and there are only a few houses at the bottom of the slope on the east side.
This is an ideal place.
Another place is built on the mountainside in the south of Nandashan.
The southern part of Nandashan belongs to Shangqiao Village, Wulu Township, and also to Jiangwei Development Zone, but it has not been used yet.
Wan Feng called Zhou Liming and asked him to go to Huanghui to find the Feng Shui master.
Wan Feng believes in Feng Shui, and it has nothing to do with superstition.
Zhou Liming’s task was to take the Feng Shui master to the two places named by Wan Feng and choose a good one.
Zhou Liming drove the Feng Shui master around Rubber Dam Mountain and Nanda Mountain for a day, and the feedback he received is as follows.
The mountain where the rubber dam is located has a bad terrain, with cliffs on the northwest side. It is a rootless place in Feng Shui and is not suitable for career development. In addition, there is a very large cemetery on the south side. If these cemeteries are not demolished and buildings are built there, it will become a layout that can be spied on by ghosts, which is a bad situation.
As soon as Wan Feng heard this, he gave up this place.
If the research building he wants to build is not conducive to the development of his career, then nothing can be done in the research. What is the point of it then?
The Feng Shui master on the southern slope of Nanda Mountain selected three places. One is in the southeast corner of Nanda Mountain, not far from Zhoujia Village, and leaning against Nanda Mountain on the right.
The second place is in the south, between Rengou Village and Zugou Village in Shannan, facing north and south, at the end of a piece of land.
The third place is the southwest corner. On the hillside south of Wohu Village is a branch of Nanda Mountain. On the left is the main peak of Nanda Mountain, and on the right is a gentle slope extending westward to Liutun.
Zhou Liming drove the car and took Wan Feng and Mr. Feng Shui along the winding mountain road of Nanda Mountain to see these three places.
It was finally decided to build a new scientific research building on the branch in the southwest corner.
The terrain here is about 30 meters higher than sea level. Wan Feng estimated the area of the top of the slope with his eyes and then measured it with his steps.
It is 400 meters long and 300 meters wide, which means that this hillside has an area of 120,000 square meters.
With an area of 200 acres, it might be time to build old buildings.
A scientific research area will be built on this side of the mountain, and a residential area will be built on the west side for these researchers to live in.
It’s decided.
