On the table is a planning drawing. This drawing was made by Yanjing Design Institute for Chuke Technology. As early as when Chuke Technology was hoarding land in Yanjing, it had already invited Yanjing Design Institute.

This design drawing was made for Chuko Technology, but it has never been used.

Previously, although Chuko Technology also had the desire to be involved in the hardware industry, it has never been confirmed, so this drawing has been shelved.

If you look at this picture, you will find that the entire plan is quite huge. It is not so much a design drawing of a research and development center as it is a city of science and technology!

The entire plan is divided into several projects. In addition to the initial building used for research and development, there is also a production center, administrative building and accommodation buildings for employees. It also includes multiple projects. The entire scale is huge. If according to

As shown in the plan, the Chuko Technology Science and Technology Industrial Park will eventually form an industrial zone integrating R&D, production, administration, etc.

The entire science and technology industrial park will eventually be able to accommodate more than hundreds of thousands of people. If coupled with the expansion of the industrial zone, the entire industrial park will completely become a science and technology city, and the number of people it can accommodate is almost equivalent to the size of a small town.

Even bigger.

This planning map was made by Yanjing Design Institute for a high-tech park in a certain city. However, in the past few years, the above authorities have begun to strictly review the establishment of high-tech zones in various places. In the end, this planning map was useless.

on.

When Chuko Technology came to the door, they made some modifications and eventually became Chuko Technology's science and technology industrial park!

Seeing Louis Jackson coming in, Chen Chu raised his head from the drawing, nodded towards Louis Jackson, and said to him, "It's Jackson, I've heard of your name a long time ago. The conditions here are simple.

, please don’t be offended!”

Chen Chu's attitude made Louis Jackson breathe a sigh of relief. Louis Jackson shook his head and said, "When we established 3dfx, the conditions were much worse than here at the beginning!"

"Due to time constraints, the entire R&D center can only stay here for the time being. However, the new R&D center will start construction soon. You will move into the new R&D center next year at the latest!" Chen Chu said to Louis Jackson.

.

This factory building was a freight station building in the 1980s. It was used as a freight transfer station between Yanjing and Gucheng, and then fell into disuse.

Hearing Chen Chu's words, Louis Jackson nodded. Chen Chu's words were enough to show that Chu Ke Technology still attached great importance to people like them.

Louis Jackson sat down, wearing a small vest and an engineering hat. Yu Shixuan, who was serious, made two cups of tea from the tea set she brought with her like magic, and put them on Chen Chu and Louis

In front of Jackson.

"Time is tight. I need you to develop a new high-performance graphics card for Chuko Technology as soon as possible!" Chen Chu looked at Louis Jackson and said, telling him about the release of new games by SG.

Read it again.

The graphics cards currently developed must be compatible with the release of sg games. This is to promote Chuko technology graphics cards and to promote games. They must be made.

Hearing Chen Chu's words, Louis Jackson immediately felt nervous. Chen Chu's intention was that he would not give them much time to accumulate technology and would directly start the project. This made Louis Jackson a little worried.

The 3dfx graphics card technical team, including him, has more than 30 people coming to Yanjing this time, and there will be nearly 20 more people later. Most of these people are engineers and graphics card designers who have been engaged in the graphics card industry for many years.

personnel.

Technically speaking, there is no problem. Developing a graphics card cannot be done by one person. It requires architecture, design, etc., and including Louis Jackson, they have not worked together for more than two years, and they have nothing to do with each other.

There is a lack of tacit understanding and cooperation.

"The time is a little too tight. The current technology of 3dfx graphics cards is still two years ago. I have done some new product designs here, but the time is still too tight!" Louis Jackson said worriedly.

Chen Chu glanced at him and said, "We don't have much time. At the latest when sg game releases the p version, we must launch a new graphics card!"

"SiS Technology's graphics card R&D team, I will let them merge into the 3dfx graphics card side, and you will be in charge of the research and development of 3dfx!" Knowing that Louis Jackson was under great pressure, Chen Chu found help for him.

Louis Jackson was relieved to hear that SiS Technology's graphics card technology team was helping. Although SiS Technology's graphics card technology is not the most advanced, at least it is not too far behind and is barely enough. Coupled with the design capabilities of 3dfx,

At least it's not too much of a disadvantage.

Louis Jackson was silent for a while, then raised his head and looked at Chen Chu, with a bit of madness in his eyes, "If Chu Ke Technology is willing, I can bring people to develop the v6 graphics processor!"

After hearing Louis Jackson's words, Yu Shixuan and several other Chuco Technology staff had no idea what the v6 graphics card Jackson mentioned was. You could see the crazy look in Louis Jackson's eyes, knowing that this thing was not simple.

Chen Chu was confused. After the 3dfx graphics card was acquired, there have been rumors that many technical staff of the original 3dfx were unwilling to be acquired, so they secretly gathered together and combined the technologies of NVIDIA and 3dfx to start designing v6 graphics cards. There were also rumors that this was

3dfx had prepared a trump card before, but before the project could be established, the entire 3dfx graphics card was acquired.

No matter what kind of rumors, v6 graphics cards are full of mystery. The so-called v6 is the sixth generation of the voodoo series of graphics cards launched by 3dfx graphics cards. This series is a graphics card series launched during the glorious but short time of 3dfx, which has laid a solid foundation for the development of 3dfx.

Make great contributions.

However, after voodoo4, the 3dfx graphics card was in danger. Compared with its peers, the performance was too poor, so it had to launch voodoo5. The new v5 fully reflected the power of 3dfx at that time, and its performance almost reached an incredible level. Even now,

The original high-end brand v5, in today's era of extremely rapid graphics card replacement, although its performance is nothing compared to high-end brands, it still ranks first among mid-range brands.

However, it is a pity that v4 cannot be sold, the price of v5 is too high, and the production capacity is insufficient. Coupled with various previous wrong strategies, the capital chain eventually broke and had to seek financing.

As a result, I found Microsoft, which was selecting graphics cards for X Wave X at the time. 3dfx wanted to cooperate with Microsoft, even if it meant selling itself, but Microsoft didn't want it.

Unable to think about it, 3dfx started to take revenge on its peers when it was desperate. It was really revenge. It packaged and sold itself to Nvidia for US$100 million. This caused most of the peers that had previously competed with 3dfx to go bankrupt this time.

Now hearing Louis Jackson mention the legendary v6, Chen Chudu couldn't help but be surprised, "Is there really a v6 design?"

Louis Jackson smiled bitterly, "Actually, I did have this idea at the time. This graphics card would regain the market. However, things changed too quickly. In the end, the project was not approved at all. After arriving at Nvidia, I and other technical staff from the original 3dfx gradually developed the idea.

The entire design plan has been improved.”

This is why we are in Cao Ying and our hearts are in Han. Louis Jackson and the others have not been in vain in the past two years. In the past two years, they have continued to improve the design of voodoo6 based on 3dfx technology. Louis Jackson is confident that this graphics card will be produced

Come out, it is definitely the leading graphics card in the industry!

Hearing Louis Jackson's words, Chen Chu couldn't help but feel comfortable. With the design plan for the v6 graphics card, at least the 70 million US dollars were not wasted!

But before Chen Chu could get happy, Louis Jackson raised another difficult question, "I can guarantee that this graphics card design is the latest graphics card design, but it cannot be achieved with our current technology. 3dfx has not been produced for two years. GPU

The performance simply cannot meet the requirements of this v6!”

Just like the PU is the core of the chip processor and determines the performance of a computer, the GPU is the control center of a graphics card and determines the performance of the graphics card. That is, the image effect of a computer is all determined by the GPU in two years.

, the GPU technology of 3dfx has seriously lagged behind. It is almost the difference between 2D graphics card and 3D graphics card. It is almost a generation difference. Even if it is produced, it will not be able to carry v6 graphics card.

It's like a Rolls-Royce with a three-wheel engine installed inside. You can only listen to the sound and don't want it to run. This is why Nvidia is so generous and gives 3dfx and technology to Chuke Technology. Because

It's simply useless.

Knowing what Chen Chu was going to say, Louis Jackson said directly, "SiS Technology's graphics card technology is not enough. They have been making mid- to low-end graphics cards, and some of the technologies are still licensed. It is impossible to make a GPU suitable for v6!

"

Chen Chu's brows hurt a little. He finally came to hear the good news, but was blocked, which made Chen Chu feel helpless. The difference between the hardware industry and the software industry is that you can't imitate it even if you want to imitate it, and it's impossible to copy it.

!

"Time is too tight, otherwise we can develop it ourselves, but it just takes time!" Louis Jackson looked at Chen Chu and said, "Give me a year, no, ten months, and I can come up with a technical solution!"

Chen Chu shook his head. In ten months, the day lilies have gone cold. SG Games has launched a new game. Chuco Technology cannot come up with a graphics card that can play this game. Other graphics card manufacturers will develop it. By then Chuco Technology has developed it.

, it’s already gone. You’ll have to continue to catch up when the time comes. Maybe you’ll never catch up. An opportunity is an opportunity. If you miss it, you’ll never catch it again!
Chapter completed!
