Everyone turned their attention to Lu Feng. Among all the people present, only Zhang Rujing was an engineer; most of the others were either company management or regional managers, and they didn't have a deep understanding of the technology.
They looked at Lu Feng without saying a word. Lu Feng looked unfamiliar and wasn't wearing a uniform, so he didn't seem like the head of any big factory. No one spoke to him, and Lu Feng seemed a little embarrassed.
Zhang Rujing looked at Lu Feng and asked, "Mr. Lu, what do you think is the future direction of chip development?"
“I think it’s in areas like communications, computer office work, vehicles, and fully automated production lines, with communications and computers being the main ones. As things stand now, mobile phone chips are more than enough, even having more than enough computing power. They’re just executing button commands. Once chips reach the nanometer level, they will meet all the computing power needs for communications. When that day comes, will there still be any need to develop chips?” Lu Feng said to everyone.
The people present glanced at Lu Feng but didn't say anything. They were just chatting casually and weren't familiar with Lu Feng.
"So you think it will ultimately remain a niche product, existing only for more advanced and complex military applications?" Zhang Rujing felt this was definitely not Lu Feng's answer, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to such lengths to develop it.
“No, computing power is the future. In the future, whichever country controls more computing power will control the future. In my vision of the future, mobile phones will not only have communication functions, but they can also be cameras. The control of the lens also requires computing power. They can be combined with the Internet. When mobile phones are computers and computers are mobile phones, they will need even greater computing power,” Lu Feng explained.
"Hahahaha!" A man in his fifties next to him laughed, and the others also looked like they were trying not to laugh.
"Your idea is outdated. Engineers proposed this concept back in the 1970s. It's all just your imagination. Do you know how much industrial development this would require? If you could master just 10% of the technology patents involved, you would definitely be the richest person in the world in the future."
"Do you carry a mobile phone and computer with you everywhere you go? Just so you can check your email anytime?" another person couldn't help but complain.
"It would be better to focus on radio wave technology, enhancing the stability of ultra-long-distance signals, improving call quality first, then text. If radio wave technology can transmit images in the next fifty years, that will be amazing. What we're discussing now is setting instructions within the software and using algorithms to automate the entire factory. Of course, it can also be connected to the internet, provided there's a wired connection." Another man in his forties seemed to know a bit about technology.
Lu Feng originally wanted to talk to them about Wi-Fi, but then he realized that the radio frequency technology for Wi-Fi only appeared in 1997.
Zhang Rujing, watching the group laughing and joking, said, "What he said isn't impossible, but it's not a problem in the chip field; it's in the communications field. I know that our mobile communications currently use analog signals, which are voltage signals. If digital signal technology breaks through, we can transmit more information. If the quality is high enough, not only can we achieve a breakthrough, but remote video transmission will also be possible." Zhang Rujing explained, then looked at Lu Feng, puzzled, and asked, "You understand communications?"
"I don't really understand either. Back when the factory made TVs, they encrypted the signal and recompiled it to create images and sound. It's pretty much the same thing," Lu Feng explained.
The others at the scene were somewhat bewildered, unsure whether Zhang Rujing was telling the truth. After asking around, they learned that the man in front of them was a senior engineer, and they looked at Lu Feng with some surprise.
Zhang Rujing frowned slightly as he looked at Lu Feng and said, "These are completely different things!"
Lu Feng didn't know much; he only knew some basic principles.
"I've heard other engineers say that one day the internet will be able to get rid of network cables. It transmits data through network cables, so we just need to find something to spread it out in a fixed area. Who knows what the future holds?" Lu Feng said, spreading his hands to indicate that he didn't know either.
