1991 Starting from the core

Meetings that are more of a forum type have fewer rules. Except for the speakers who are going to take the stage, they are specially arranged in the first row. Everyone else's seats are more casual.

After learning that Zhou Boguang had no speaking assignment, Su Yuanshan and Zhou Boguang randomly picked up two seats by the aisle and sat down to continue chatting.

At 9 o'clock, the leader came to the stage to speak.

The words are nothing more than a cliché expression of welcome, and said that the Shanghai Stock Exchange will continue to support the semiconductor industry, and finally I wish the conference a success.

The first person to speak next was Professor Su Xinghe, who had just published a paper in ISSCC, the top journal on integrated circuits. The topic was "The future of semiconductors is the future of industrialization."

"Starting from the first steam engine, the changes in the world caused by the Industrial Revolution have allowed us to appreciate the charm of scientific and technological development. From steam engines to internal combustion engines, to nuclear energy and electric energy. Now, with the booming development of the semiconductor industry, we have entered the third The end of the Second Industrial Revolution.”

"There is no doubt that semiconductors have revolutionized the industry, and I will not go into details here. Based on a review of past developments and a summary of recent development trends, our predictions for the future are optimistic and clear."

"In the future, full automation will be the inevitable direction for all mechanical tools. To achieve full automation, the first step is micro-automation. This can be seen from the rapid growth in the production and use of PLD programmable devices and microcontrollers in the past few years. , as well as the high-end programmable device FPGA that various companies are involved in, you can see the clues."

"It is gratifying that the domestic demand for a series of automation control chips is the fastest, even growing exponentially..."

…

Su Yuanshan pursed his lips, feeling extremely happy as he listened to his father's almost unscripted speech on the stage.

——He did not believe that Professor Su Xinghe could memorize a manuscript of nearly 5,000 words in just two days.

This can only mean that the content in the manuscript is also recognized and understood by his father.

"Why do I think this speech was written by you?" Zhou Boguang was listening carefully like Su Yuanshan, and he lowered his head to take notes from time to time.

At this time, while Professor Su Xinghe lowered his head to drink water and make a little joke, Zhou Boguang lightly touched Su Yuanshan - Su Yuanshan's notebook was blank.

"Hey, that's my dad after all." Su Yuanshan said something ambiguous and glanced at Zhou Boguang's notes.

I remember the key points very accurately, which shows that the old man really listened.

On the stage, Professor Su Xinghe continued to speak.

"...Therefore, we have reason to believe that in the next thirty years, industrialization will reach its peak and information technology will reach its climax, and the foundation and cornerstone of achieving these is semiconductors."

“As a faculty author in the semiconductor industry, I am grateful to have the opportunity to see that day come in my lifetime.”

"thank you all."

Su Yuanshan started to applaud the moment his father finished speaking, and then, the billowing applause flooded the entire hall.

…

With Su Xinghe's almost commanding speech, the prediction reports of the following speakers on the entire industry were a bit too tasteless. On the contrary, the predictions of technological breakthroughs were more eye-catching.

After all, no matter how good the words are, it still requires technology to make a breakthrough.

If there is no scientific theory as a foundation and no technical implementation as a tool, all visions will be similar to ascending to the sun.

Zhang Rujin attended as a special guest. Although he did not prepare a speech, he still sat in the front row with the leaders and others, which was considered to be enough face for this well-known factory construction expert in the industry.

There was a working meal at noon. Although the standard was not high, it was exquisite enough. Su Yuanshan still did not stay with his father, but continued to "hang out" with Zhou Boguang and others. Zhou Boguang was so happy that he joked that he was doing spy work himself.

In the afternoon, Su Yuanshan was much more relaxed. Although most of the colleagues present knew that he was the actual controller of Yuanxin, first of all, his father was here, and secondly, there were many experts and professors here, so everyone could only say hello and exchange a few words with him. The targets are still leaders, Professor Su Xinghe, and popular figures such as Zhang Rujin and Zhou Boguang.

Around three o'clock, the leader said that he was busy with official duties and needed to leave, but the door of the city government was always open for everyone present.
