What Zhang Yang has been most concerned about in the past two years is Chaowei Yingweida's R\u0026D center in Suzhou, because it carries the R\u0026D task of APU. The apu is also related to the development of many future products of Zhiduoxing.

Apu can be used in game consoles and tablets, and can also be used in notebooks and all-in-one computers. The application prospect is broad, and it is also an important product for Chaowei to catch up with Intel in the cpu market share in the previous life.

This project has been going on for several years, and the amount of money invested is not small, but it is not enough to only solder on one chip, and the difficulty of physical integration is not high.

The real difficulty is architecture integration and system integration, and this time, someone notified him that architecture integration and system integration have been preliminarily completed, and testing and adjustments have begun.

This is also due to the new version of K10 architecture of Chaowei Eagle Weida, which inspired them and made a major breakthrough in technology.

It can make this product have super computing power and graphics processing ability has been greatly improved. From the perspective of the R\u0026D personnel, this product is made for the next-generation game console of Zhiduoxing, because it is obviously more suitable for the core of the game console.

But they didn't see the other advantages of this product. It can use a smaller volume to achieve more powerful computing power, so it can be used in notebook computers and all-in-one computers that require higher volume.

Zhang Yang didn't say anything about it, let's see what the performance is like and whether it can meet his requirements. If not, then we need to continue research and development. If it is achieved, we can consider launching a tablet.

...

Lisa Su, Jason Huang's niece, was also a talent recruited by Zhang Yang from ib. At this time, she was working as the vice president of Chaowei Eagle Weida Huaxia Branch, mainly responsible for the research and development and sales of APU.

Now that the research and development is successful, she is naturally very excited. She switched jobs not because her cousin was the co-CEO of this company, but because they were willing to give her a management position so that she would have more room for career advancement.

A woman who works in a technical position has already been discriminated against a lot, and she can't be like many male technicians, unkempt and a technical geek.

She likes the management position and yearns for this opportunity. Originally, she also received an invitation from Freescale, also as a supervisor, but after weighing the pros and cons, she chose the super-powerful Eagle Weida, which is currently gaining momentum.

She believes that within two years, the chairman of Chaowei Yingweida will become Zhang Yang, and Zhang Yang, as a young man, and there are some young executives in Zhiduoxing Group, will definitely not despise her, let alone her from her cousin. The other side knew that it was Zhang Yang's intention to dig him over.

She really doesn't have the idea of ​​dying for her confidant, but she also hopes to appreciate her corporate work more. How does Freescale's development potential compare with Chaowei Eagle Weida.

Of course, if ib was willing to give her a management position, she might not change jobs, but she took the initiative to talk to the chairman, who didn't think about it at all, saying that she was still young and asked her to wait.

As for how long to wait, there is no mention at all.

Fortunately, she came to Suzhou, China, and integrated into the company relatively quickly, because she really understands technology, and she is also the technical assistant of the chairman in ib.

Under the company's new k10 architecture template, the technicians finally completed the architecture and integration, and began to conduct experiments. And she also reported to Zhang Yang immediately, which is also one of her credits.

Although in the eyes of many people, this credit may be picked up by her. After all, she has been working here for less than three months, but so what?

Later, she will be responsible for the sales of this product. If there is no product, what will she sell?

"Zhang Dong, this is the performance parameter of the newly developed APU by the company. Of course, this is only theoretical, and it will take a long time of experiments to finally determine it."

"At present, many people in the company are conducting continuous experiments. There are many projects to be tested, and the time required is not short. A mature core chip needs at least 1,000 hours of testing."

"Even if the testers work three shifts and work overtime without rest, it will take nearly four months to complete, but according to our inference, if there are no problems in the first month of testing, we can announce that this product has been successfully developed. .”

"My idea is that this product will be announced to the public during the test, attracting the attention of all hardware manufacturers, and at the same time allow some PC manufacturers to start designing PC products with our APU as the core."

Zhang Yang raised his hand: "Stop, let me have a look first."

He kept talking in his ear, and his desire to show off was too strong, right? Since he has recruited Lisa Su, he will give her time and space to grow up. She has never looked down on women.

In the previous life, there were also many women among the executives of global companies. In addition to Lisa Su, the president of ad, and Carly Ofelina of Hewlett-Packard, this woman also announced her participation in the election.

There is also Rometty (Virginia Rometty), who will succeed Palmisano and become chairman and president of ib in the future, and Marissa Mayer, who has served as president of Yahoo and vice president of Google, and so on.

There are many successful examples of women in executive positions, especially in the IT industry, which are very common. Even many companies will definitely choose a female executive, thinking that they can play a vital role in the executives and can think of angles that many men can't think of.

Zhang Yang also considered this way, so he chose to recruit a female executive, and Lisa Su was the most cost-effective.  Lisa Su also felt that she seemed to be too anxious, so she took a half step back and waited for Zhang Dong to answer some questions after reading the parameters. She could answer these without the need for the technical director to come over.  "How about the computing speed, can it be used as a chipset, can it be connected to another gpu?" "Zhang Dong, this apu is a fusion product of cpu and gpu. It already includes the functions of gpu. Although it looks like an integrated product, its performance is definitely not weaker than that of a mid-range independent graphics card."  Zhang Yang looked at Lisa Su : "You also said that it is not weaker than the mid-range independent graphics card. How is it compared with the high-end one? Some people don't have high requirements for the CPU, but require powerful GPU performance. Have you reserved room for them to upgrade? "  " If you haven't considered this issue, you can call the technical director over. I still have a lot of questions, and I need him to answer them one by one." The meeting with Dong did not go well. I remember that when she came to work here, Zhang Dong was easy to talk to.   Then there are still shortcomings in her work, why hasn't she considered these issues? It seems that she still has a lot to learn if she wants to be a good manager.
