Xueba's Sea of ​​Stars

Chapter 181 ICT Field
Mother Pei, who heard the voice in the kitchen, also came out with a spatula. When she saw Wu Bin, she immediately said happily, "I was afraid you wouldn't want to come."

"How come, I miss my aunt's craftsmanship very much."

"Hahaha, I'm still so good at talking. Today I specially bought some extra ribs to make sure you enjoy it."

"Thank you auntie."

"Thank you for nothing. You should. Go sit down and rest for a while. The food will be ready soon."

"it is good."

After sitting on the sofa, Dad Pei poured him a cup of tea and asked, "How do you feel about studying at HKUST?"

"Very good, there is a strong learning atmosphere there."

"Hey!" Dad Pei slapped his thigh and said with emotion: "The two graduates of the University of Science and Technology in our company also said the same, and they are also very capable, so when Min Min told me that you are going to the University of Science and Technology, I felt that You can't go wrong."

"HKUST now really attaches great importance to chips and artificial intelligence, and it is very cutting-edge."

"That's pretty cutting-edge. Didn't the Four King Kongs of the 'Cambrian Period' all graduate from your University of Science and Technology? The CEO seems to be in the junior class, right?"

"Well, their names are also familiar to me."

"I have to say that heroes come from young. Now if you want to catch up with the United States, or even defeat the United States, you have to rely on this thing!"

Wu Bin nodded, "In the ICT field, Huaguo is indeed Laomei's biggest challenger, but it's just a challenger...the strength gap is still a bit big."

"Hey! Why are young people talking so sluggishly? Come, come, come with me to the room, and I'll show you the latest data report."

"That's great!" Wu Bin stood up excitedly as soon as he heard this, and followed Pei's father into his study.

'These two are really...'

In fact, when Wu Bin came to help her with tutoring before, Pei Jiamin knew that he and her father had a good chat, but every time they chatted a few words, her mother would forcefully interrupt her. After all, Wu Bin's main task was to help her with tutoring.

But now that Wu Bin didn't want to help her with this task, her father naturally started to let himself go.

Half an hour later, when Mother Pei came out with a large bowl full of sweet and sour noodles, she looked at the bored Pei Jiamin on the sofa and asked, "Where are they?"

"I went to the study to discuss state affairs."

"These two really hit it off..." Mother Pei smiled and shook her head, "The dishes are ready, go ask them to come out for dinner."

"Oh~"

After agreeing, Pei Jiamin ran to the door of her father's study and shouted, "It's time to eat."

"Eat first, we'll come right away." It was Dad's voice that came from the study.

Hearing this expected answer, Pei Jiamin quietly opened the door and took a sneak peek at what the two of them were talking about inside.

Wu Bin: "So the MOS tube with a gate length of 28 nanometers will still be in the most cost-effective position for a long time?"

Dad Pei: "Well, after analysis, 28nm is still the best cost node."

"It seems that the explosive development of information technology will also be contained by physics."

"That's why we need you, the new generation, to continue to work hard!" Father Pei patted Wu Bin on the shoulder and said sincerely.

'I don't understand, I don't understand...'

Pei Jiamin, who felt that her knowledge had been severely attacked, closed the door silently, ran to the kitchen and said that they probably would have to study and discuss for a while before eating.

……

"Uncle, can you show me the leaderboard released by IC insight again?"

"Of course, come on, sit and watch." Dad Pei stood up and gave up his seat to Wu Bin.

"No, no, I'll just stand and watch." Wu Bin waved his hands quickly.

"Oh, you're welcome, now is the time for you to take a closer look." Papa Pei pushed Wu Bin onto the chair as he spoke.

"Thank you, Uncle." After Wu Bin finished speaking, he opened the documents that Papa Pei had shown him before, and read them with relish.

For the chip technology industry, Wu Bin has only heard the sound but not seen the shape, but the courses of microelectronics, soc design method and application, and integrated circuit computer aided design are all in his university plan.

At first, he became interested in chips because Cai Guoping introduced him to the domestic Godson and Huawei's Cambrian and so on.

Later, as Wu Bin came into contact with this field, he discovered what significance it has for this era.

There is no doubt that the United States is strong, and it is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but what supports its strength?

The answer lies in the field of ICT.

The United States has a total of about 17 billion-dollar billion-dollar companies, including 2 in the daily chemical industry, Procter & Gamble and Johnson & Johnson, [-] in the entertainment industry, Disney, [-] in the automotive industry, GM, [-] in the retail industry, and Wal-Mart.

There are 6 in total.

And the remaining 11 companies are all in the ICT field!That's right, a full 11 companies with tens of billions of dollars in profits!

Google, Amazon, Facebook, Cisco, IBM, Intel, Microsoft, Oracle, Verizon, AT&T.

Each one can be said to be famous.

And they are what support the strong presence of the United States.

But during several chats with Papa Pei, Wu Bin also realized another point, that is, Huaguo is the absolute strongest challenger in the field of the United States, which is the foundation of the country.

Mobile, Huawei, ZTE, Ali, Baidu, Tencent, Netease, Xiaomi, Inspur, Tsinghua Unigroup and other companies have net profits exceeding US$10 billion.
We must know that there are only three or four hundred companies with a global net profit of more than US$10 billion.

As for why this situation has formed, why do traditional powers such as Britain, France, Japan, the United States and Germany seem to have completely missed this Internet age?

The answer is, because the network has increasing marginal returns, that is, the more existing users in a network, the more benefits he can get when a new user joins.

In other words, in the Internet age, population has once again become a condition that can generate huge profits.

Of course, this refers to the population who can eat enough to eat, can go to school, and don't have to be careful when going out.

The United States has the largest population among all developed countries, so its Internet companies take off the fastest.

In the same way, Huaguo has the largest population in developing countries, and other industries have also developed to a considerable height, enough to support Huaguo's network industry.

"Tsk, it seems that the US emperor is determined to block our vigorous development of integrated circuits." After reading an industry news, Wu Bin shook his head and said.

"Why don't you say that the old beauty bullies people." Dad Pei smiled after finishing speaking, "But it is also a good thing. It hurts self-esteem the most if you are weak to be ignored. As the most upstream technology in the ICT field, integrated circuits are the most important thing. The absolute cornerstone of hardware, if Huaguo’s integrated circuit industry is taking off, it will definitely be Laomei who will be hit the hardest.”

ps: The holidays are over, and I’m starting to go to work, busy as a husky... Alas, tired!
