Chapter 58 Night Flight
"Since you are interested in microelectronics, do you know the three major chip architectures currently mainstream?"
"Know."
After Wang Tianming asked, Lu Yao nodded:
"X86, ARM, MIPS."
After he answered, he muttered in his heart:
"In a few years, there will be four major architectures. In addition to these three, there is also RISC-V. Compared with these three, the advantage of that architecture is that it is completely open source, and the architecture patent is not controlled by a certain company. It is controlled by a foundation jointly established by Samsung, Nvidia and other companies.”
At first glance, this architecture has great advantages.
But in fact... if you don't mention anything else, just looking at mobile chips, if they want to surpass ARM, they can only say that there is a long way to go.
In Lu Yao's view, this structure is actually more like a back-up left by all companies that understand that the United States is unreliable.
Wang Tianming was not surprised when he heard Lu Yao's answer.
Because in his opinion, these are actually very basic things.
So he said:
"As for me, I suggest that your interest be tilted towards the ARM architecture. Because..."
He suddenly pointed at Hu Li's cell phone:
“The smartphone era that started with Apple 3GS will become the absolute mainstream in society in the future...”
After hearing this, Lu Yao actually understood what he was thinking.
He is here today to help clear away the clouds for his junior classmate who is "interested in the microelectronics industry".
It was something too profound, and he probably couldn't understand it himself.
Therefore, the suggestions given are all about future employment directions and overall industry prospects.
After understanding this, Lu Yao felt a little regretful.
He really wanted to talk to the other party about the 0.13 micron copper interconnect technology. But this technology is probably not available yet, or it is just preliminary theoretical research, because SMIC has not yet been established. And even if it was established, it would be impossible for the other party to talk to him, and he couldn't even ask.
This kind of confidential research, even the plan is a code name, how can I, a student, know about it?
If you really want to say it...yeah.
Something must have gone terribly wrong.
Start chatting before meals and also during meals.
Lu Yao must admit that Wang Tianming is a very good mentor.
Even though I didn't teach him any techniques, he was really eloquent during this meal.
From industry prospects, to what Lu Yao will study in the first semester after enrolling in school, which courses are more important, to which newspapers and magazines he can follow when he is in school, and finally to the overall plan...
A doctoral supervisor explained to a student something very important to a student in the electronics industry in a way that was broken down into pieces and in the most straightforward and easy-to-understand way.
He doesn't seem to be very good at interpersonal communication. But when it comes to the professional world, he really packs a punch.
In fact, Lu Yao also understood these things, but he had to pretend not to understand before suddenly realizing.
Putting aside these things, just from the aspect of "attitude", Wang Tianming is really full.
So full that even Hu Li has a very basic understanding of this industry.
For example, the chip called ARM must be as small as possible.
The most powerful chip company now is called Qualcomm.
China’s chips are still lagging behind, but everyone is working hard to catch up.
Another example is that the soul of a chip is chip design. The first step of this design is called specification formulation, followed by logic design, layout planning, performance design, circuit simulation, layout and routing, layout verification, etc.
It's obviously just a very small thing, but it's like a miniature city...
It is the most brilliant technological crystallization of mankind.
Oh yes, she also figured out what Moore's Law is.
And even a complete layman like Hu Li could understand it to this extent. This shows how much Wang Tianming said during this meal.
How thoroughly explained.
Hu Li also had a completely new evaluation of Brother Wang.
Different from his younger brother Wang Tianshu.
What Wang Tianshu wanted was connections, she could tell.
But this big brother was like a very pure teacher, devoted to research, and even Hu Li could detect from his sudden and abrupt changes in topics that he was an unsociable person.
The words are very factual and nothing convoluted.
He's a pretty nice guy.
In just one meal, Wang Tianming said everything he needed to say.
At this time, he noticed his brother pinching his leg.
He remembered his brother's instructions when he came in, and looked at Lu Yao again.
In fact, he had a good impression of this child.
Because from some of the questions, he could feel that the other party was really interested in this industry, including some theoretical knowledge that he felt children were not exposed to now, and the other party could also answer it.
This shows that his interest in this industry is not just a spur of the moment.
And his personality is quite down-to-earth.
He is different from the kind of brash kid.
So, he said:
"Let's leave a phone number. If you have any academic or academic problems in the future, you can contact me. In addition..."
Having said this, he paused.
"It would be even better if you could take revenge on Hua. I'm familiar with the people there, and they can give you a lot of help from undergraduate studies to Ph.D.'s."
Wang Tianshu nodded and said with a smile:
"Yes, if you have any questions, just come to us directly."
"Thank you, Brother Wang."
Lu Yao thanked her sincerely, and Hu Li also smiled happily:
"That would be great..."
……
"Did I say the right thing?"
After the three of them watched Lu Yao drive away, Wang Tianming suddenly became a little uneasy and looked at his brother.
"No."
Wang Tianshu shook his head:
"Brother, that's good enough."
Looking at the X6 turning out of the parking lot, he asked:
"How do you feel about this kid?"
“Quite solid.”
This is Wang Tianming’s evaluation.
But...
After he finished speaking, he looked at his brother:
"There is still a gap between Fuhua and Qinghua. You shouldn't let me say that."
"There is a gap, but it's not obvious. What's more, there are just a few things that come back and forth in undergraduate studies. The most important thing in this industry is talent. If you have talent, you can pass Qinghua's postgraduate entrance examination with two courses. You are right about this."< br>
While Wang Tianshu was talking, he turned to look at Wei Qianqian and found that she was fiddling with her mobile phone, so she asked:
"Qianqian, who are you sending this message to?"
"Sister Hu Li."
Wei Qianqian's words stunned him:
"She?"
"Yeah."
The school beauty nodded and handed the phone to her cousin.
Hu Li:
"Qianqian, come shopping with me these days."
Wei Qianqian’s reply has not been sent yet:
"Okay, Sister Li. What time?"
After reading it, he handed the phone back and said:
"Whenever you change it to Sister Li and you have time, just call me."
"Oh, okay."
After sending the message according to his cousin's wishes, Hu Li replied with an EMOJI emoticon.
After she replied, she raised her head and asked her cousin:
"Cousin, will Lu Yao take revenge on Hua?"
"I don't know."
Wang Tianshu shook his head:
"Qianqian, the important thing is not where he reports, but the meal."
As he spoke, his expression seemed to be full of energy.
Wei Qianqian tilted her head in confusion.
Wang Tianming seemed to understand what his brother meant, but he didn't say anything. He just glanced at his watch and said:
"Send me back to the laboratory. I have to work overtime tonight. Others are waiting for me."
……
"This Wang Tianming is good, but Wang Tianshu is more tactful. You have to be cautious when contacting him, but you don't need to be cautious when contacting Wang Tianming. It is best to treat each other with sincerity."
This is Hu Li's summary of the two brothers.
Lu Yao responded to express his understanding and said at the same time:
"Thank you, Sister Li."
"Hehe~"
Hu Li's eyes turned into crescents:
"Then you have to cook me a delicious meal in the next two days."
"...Hmm!"
Lu Yao understood that this favor might be nothing to her.
But for me...it means a lot.
Because he is now the fox next to the tiger.
The fox, who had eaten and drank enough, looked at the time and seemed to be a little unfinished.
He couldn't help but turn his head and look at Lu Yao who was driving.
After thinking for a while, he said:
"Let's go watch a movie?"
"Okay."
Lu Yao naturally understands what it means to reciprocate love.
"Let's go and watch "Toy Story"~ Autobots, let's go!"
……
When Lu Yao arrived home, it was already past 11 o'clock.
The whole movie is uneventful.
As for how good-looking it is...it's actually just that.
However, he did see a couple kissing, sitting in the same last row as them... kissing intermittently from the beginning to the end.
Tsk...
Feeling that the world was declining, he just opened the door and found that his parents had not gone to bed yet, and were sitting on the sofa watching him as he entered.
"Dad, Mom, why haven't you two slept yet?"
Ms. Chen rolled her eyes speechlessly:
"How could you possibly sleep?... Your dad won't let you call you, so why did you go?"
"Watching a movie with my classmates... "Toy Story 3" was quite good. As for Lu Qing, I left half a bucket of leftover popcorn for her."
Lu Yuanshan was speechless, while Ms. Chen sighed helplessly:
"You really feel uncomfortable if you don't get beaten for a day."
But she didn't think much about it, after all, she had other business on her mind.
Looking at Lu Yao sitting on the sofa, she asked directly:
"Where's the money your boss gave you?"
"It's in my card. I can transfer it to you at the bank tomorrow?" After hearing this, Ms. Chen did not agree, but asked:
"You really can't retreat?"
"I've tried it."
Lu Yao shook his head:
"Mom, didn't I tell you... You also know that she is really not short of money. She asked me how I did in the exam, and I just said casually, and she took out a wad of cash from the safe. . Two bundles! One hundred thousand bundles.”
He made a thick gesture:
"Then he told me, 180,000, one year old is 10,000, and said that I did so well in the exam, so I deserve it... You and my dad have given me eighteen years of upbringing, and the remaining 20,000 is for me to be filial to you and My dad. I didn’t want it at first, but... anyway, it was reduced from 200,000 to 180,000. I really had no choice... so I didn’t even want the salary until the boss found a new driver and assistant. , kept driving for her.”
"..."
"..."
Lu Yao said sincerely.
But the more sincere he was, the more speechless Lu Yuanshan and Chen Aihua became.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Because... they can't imagine how rich this kind of person is.
However, Lu Yuanshan approved his son's approach.
There is obviously no way to return the money.
Moreover, from the child's cabinet of good clothes and the few pieces of clothing that cost tens of thousands of dollars, he understood... People who can spend two to three hundred thousand to buy clothes for their son really don't care about this little money.
The only thing the Lao Lu family can repay is actually... what their son has done.
This thing is indeed pie in the sky.
My son was actually happy when he picked it up.
But the problem is that the money comes too much, and I feel uneasy.
This is why the two of them waited until Lu Yao came back to ask questions.
So, he said:
"I have discussed it with your mother. Talk to your boss tomorrow... and see if you can invite her to have a meal at the college entrance banquet. To express our family's gratitude."
"..."
Lu Yao's mouth twitched.
Isn't this meant to reveal something?
After thinking for a while, he said:
"This... I can only ask as much as possible. My boss is very busy..."
"Just have a meal at noon, your boss is busy, don't you want to have a meal at noon?"
Chen Aihua rolled his eyes:
"It's just a meal. I don't mean anything else. I just want to say that we want to thank her. Did you hear that?"
"..."
Lu Yao was speechless, but he could only agree temporarily.
As for what to do next...he would think about it later.
But in order to prevent his parents from delving into this topic, he glanced at the empty second bedroom with the door open and asked:
"Where is Lu Qing?"
"I went out to play. After a day of wild life, who knows where I went."
Mom was speechless.
But Lu Yao felt the same as Ming Jing.
This love-minded bitch is probably on a date with Wu Nan.
But...just right.
Neither his parents were sleeping at this moment, so he directly expressed his thoughts:
"Mom, Dad, I hope that these 180,000 yuan, as well as the 20,000 to 30,000 yuan from my school scholarship, will be used as tuition for Lu Qing, so that she can study abroad."
"..."
Ms. Chen’s eyebrows instantly rose.
Lu Yuanshan frowned and spoke first:
"You don't have to worry about this matter. Even if your sister wants to leave, she won't use your money. Let your mother save your money for you."
"Your sister isn't going anywhere!"
Ms. Chen glared at her husband and suddenly stood up:
"Go, take a shower, go to bed quickly, I won't go to work tomorrow!"
After speaking impatiently to her son, she turned and glanced at Lu Yuanshan again:
"You should also brush your teeth and go to bed. Also, my son has to go to work again and there is nothing going on at home. If you need to go to the sports car these days, go quickly!"
"..."
"..."
Obviously, she is still very determined about her daughter's attitude towards studying abroad.
After entering the house, Ms. Chen closed the door.
Lu Yao could only turn his attention to his father.
Lu Yuanshan didn't say anything, just waved his hand:
"Have a good rest. Don't delay tomorrow's work."
"Okay..."
"Jingle bell."
A phone call suddenly broke the calm.
Lu Yao took out the phone and took a look, feeling a little confused.
It was Hu Li calling.
"Hello, Sister Li?"
"Lu Yao, come pick me up. I'm going to the airport now."
"...Huh?"
Lu Yaoxin said it's almost 12 o'clock, why are we going to the airport?
But he still responded:
"Okay, I'll leave now."
"Well, I'll wait for you downstairs, hurry up."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, he said to Lu Yuanshan:
"Dad, my boss's friend asked me to take her to the airport while I go out."
"Uh...shall I come with you?"
"No, I can just go by myself. Let's go."
"...Drive slower!"
"Okay."
Before he finished speaking, the door was closed.
Lu Yao jogged all the way to the parking space, drove out and drove out.
He didn't know why Hu Li suddenly wanted to go to the airport, but he still accelerated the accelerator.
When we arrived at the hotel, it was almost 12 o'clock.
As soon as he arrived, he saw Hu Li carrying a suitcase and running out of the hotel.
He quickly got out of the car and opened the trunk, and when he took the box from Hu Li, he found... Hu Li was actually crying.
Suddenly a bad idea came to his mind.
Could it be...
But it was too late to talk nonsense. He closed the trunk door, quickly got into the driver's seat, put the car into gear, and sped out.
Hu Li was on the phone after getting in the car:
"Mom, how's the situation?"
"Woo..."
"Bubu must hold on until I go back. Tell it, I will go back right away... Wuwu..."
"I'm rushing to the airport now. The flight will be arranged as soon as possible..."
She was crying and talking on the phone.
But Lu Yao's not-so-good thoughts turned into... a bit of speechless doubt.
Bubu?
Why doesn't it sound like a person's name?
After Hu Li finally hung up the phone, he handed over a tissue and asked:
"Sister Li, check your bag. Do you have your ID card and everything?"
Hearing this, Hu Li quickly unpacked her bag.
Confirmed that the documents were complete.
At this time, Lu Yao asked tentatively:
"Sister Li, what is it?"
"..."
Hu Li began to cry silently.
And just when Lu Yao was thinking about whether to continue asking, she burst into tears and said:
"My dad's dog... is going to die... wuwuwu..."
"..."
For a moment, Lu Yao didn't know what to say.
Can only be silent.
But he accelerated his speed.
After arriving at the airport in a shorter time than before, Hu Li did not let him go to the airport entrance this time, but turned into the VIP channel.
Following the passage and passing an electronic gate, he watched Hu Li get on the transfer vehicle with "Special Purpose" written on it.
Not even a farewell.
As he was leaving, he saw an advertisement:
"XX Airlines, your personal aviation butler."
Hu Li...should have left on a private plane, right?
Just for a dog...
In fact, it sounds ridiculous.
The money for this flight could probably buy a hundred dogs.
But when he thought of her crying so sadly and her words "my dad's dog", he suddenly felt the same.
Actually, it's not the dog that matters.
But... the memories left by relatives, right?
Although she never said it, nor did Xu Ruochu, there were various signs that her father... seemed to have left.
Judging from her obsession with a "smaller home" and the old house she has been to... what she seems to cherish most is the time when the "family is reunited".
Unfortunately, time is cruel.
Not subject to anyone's will.
It will only ruthlessly take away all the warm memories and existence about her... bit by bit.
well.
As he drove, he sighed.
Finally, he simply lowered the window and lit a cigarette.
Heading towards home.
