Chapter 390 Variables
It is like a mountain, and it is like this at any time when it is put into a strange field. No one knows how it is. After all, not everyone can start from paper making to tires and cables like Nokia, and finally become a mobile phone with a span of such a large span.
Since entering modern society, the cost of entering an unfamiliar industry has been increasing. Chuke Technology is also very worried. After all, this is no longer a grass-roots team. The entire Chuke Technology industry and the members who invest in the company have already invested in, there are nearly 10,000 people. So many people have lives and lives, and the whole family behind it is counting on Chuke Technology.
Therefore, there are naturally doubts about Chuke Technology entering the hardware industry. You must know that it is not only a few people who are affected, but the entire Chuke Technology.
On the other hand, it is a dispute over interests. The competition between SG games and Renren Technology in Chuke Technology has both the idea of competing with each other, but more so it is due to funding.
The same is true for the hardware industry department now. The funds provided by Chuke Technology to each department every quarter are different. The Ministry of Hardware Industry has invested a lot now. Other departments include SG Games, Renren Technology, and Oriental Network, and have less funds and resources.
This will naturally make other departments of Chuke Technology conflict with the Ministry of Hardware Industry. This is almost human nature, or individuals have this kind of thinking, just like a child who was robbed of a cake. If you really don’t have any ideas, then something will be wrong.
Zeng Yuanli looked at Chen Chu. Of course, he had no say in entering the hardware industry. He suddenly became a senior technical leader of Chuke. Although no one said it on the surface, many people behind him said that Zeng Yuanli was promoted by his relationship with Chen Chu. Zeng Yuanli was also a senior brother of Chen Chu several times. I don’t know how many people talked about this.
However, Zeng Yuanli still wanted to know some ideas about Chen Chu before making a better arrangement. He is in charge of Chuke technology. He must know the overall layout and planning of Chuke technology, otherwise he may not be able to proceed at all.
After hearing Zeng Yuanli's words, Chen Chu sighed in his heart. Even Zeng Yuanli had such doubts and was even more disgusting about others. If Chen Chu had not insisted on implementing this matter, he might not have been able to continue.
Nodding, Chen Chu said to Zeng Yuanli, "The hardware department will be the focus of Chuke's technology development in the future. In at least a few years, Chuke Technology will place funds and resources on the Ministry of Hardware Industry!"
Even if the hardware department has a way to make a profit, it is still far from enough for what to do, and it is definitely necessary to continue to invest in it!
The shock on Zeng Yuanli's face flashed, but the surprise in his heart did not dissipate. He felt that Chen Chu's determination in the hardware industry was almost much greater than he imagined!
Now Zeng Yuanli understands that Wu Xingdao and Du Jianzhao know that the establishment of the hardware department will have an impact on the industries on both sides, but there is no obstacle at all. Obviously, they are more familiar with Chen Chu than Zeng Yuanli, and know that it is useless to block it!
Zeng Yuanli has a deeper understanding of Chen Chu's influence in Chuke's technology. Unlike the founders of Wall Street who only act as a plastic vase for reporters to interview and promote, Chuke's technology is completely in Chen Chu's hands!
After listening to Chen Chu's words, he knew that Chen Chu had made a decision and Chuke Technology wanted to make a large investment in the hardware industry department. Zeng Yuanli thought for a moment and said, "I will make regular funds in the next step, and more funds will be transferred to the hardware industry department!"
Chen Chu believed in Zeng Yuanli's ability. Since joining Chuke Technology, Zeng Yuanli has gained a firm foothold in Chuke Technology and has mastered financial power. The allocation of funds for the entire Chuke Technology has also begun to become more standardized. There is a complete set of rules from project establishment, review to approval, and no longer rushing around like in the past.
Just like when SG Games wants to develop a new game, it needs to conduct project investigations, evaluate the game's audience, market, profit, etc., and then transfer it to the Investment Management Department for review. After the review is approved, Chen Chu or Zeng Yuanli will sign and allocate funds.
Of course, this efficiency may be slower than before. For example, when SG Games developed new games before, there was no market research or anything like that. Chen Chu directly gave game planning and then started research and development directly.
However, the current model is the most normal model, especially when more games will be launched in the future, Chen Chu will not be able to intervene all of it. This requires a normal process and is also a way to control risks.
Zeng Yuanli and Chen Chu discussed the funds to various departments for the next quarter for a while, and then walked out with the documents signed by Chen Chu.
After Zeng Yuanli went out, Chen Chu opened the window and the cool wind rushed in, which made Chen Chu feel much more energetic. At present, Chu Ke's technical affairs were almost increasing, and Chen Chu felt a little tired.
This is the case when Chen Chu gave up a large part of the management power. Otherwise, what Chen Chu would have to deal with now would be more than ten times that of now.
Chen Chu felt that he should find a person in charge for the hardware industry department as soon as possible, and Chen Chu would at least be more relaxed.
The Ninth Institute of Solid Circuits, located in a county in Shuchuan, was established in the 1950s. It is one of the representatives of the brief glory of the domestic semiconductor industry in the past few years. It was the only analog integrated circuit research institute in China at that time. In the same year, it jointly built an oxide P-S semiconductor circuit production line with the Shanghai radio plant.
Subsequently, each research institute settled around the Nth Research Institute and began to jointly develop Nth Research Institute, including Nth Research Institute, Cth Research Institute, etc. I dare not say how advanced the technology is, but they are all independently developed and have produced nearly 40 million processors to supply domestic computers, radios, TVs, air conditioners, etc. At that time, it should be said that it was the pinnacle of domestic R&D institutions represented by the Nth Research Institute.
However, since the 1980s and 1990s, foreign industry giants entered the country. When foreign chip processor giants such as Intel, these chip processor giants flocked to the market with several generations of processors that led the domestic chips, the entire domestic chip-related industry was hit by the impact.
Major electrical appliance manufacturers, computers, TVs, industrial machinery and other industries have all begun to buy foreign products. After all, foreign chips are more advanced, with huge price advantages and timely capacity supply. Domestic products are almost all-round behind in the face of Intel and other products, and even the gap in the generation difference level!
How to choose at this time is almost clear at a glance. The most profitable domestic consumer electronics and electrical appliance manufacturers have turned to foreign processor manufacturers and domestic companies that produce integrated circuits. In just a few months, a large number of them have either gone bankrupt or transformed into other industries.
At this time, domestic research institutes were even more impacted. Those integrated circuit companies fell down and no cooperation R&D funds were available. Just relying on the little funding distributed every year, it was difficult for even supporting the internal engineers of the research institute, let alone improving R&D products and technology.
The Ninth Institute of Solid Circuits of Shuchuan cannot change the general trend. In the past, the Ninth Institute of Solid Circuits was one of the best units in local counties and districts, and also built employee dormitories, primary schools, clinics, etc., which are the units that the local people envied.
But that's all history. Now everything has passed. The employee accommodation building built back then has reached a point where it needs repair. It is crowded. A crowd of six or seven people are crowded in a house of less than 40 or 50 square meters. As for the primary school, clinic and other things built back then, it has long been inconsistent with its name and is now in ruins.
Xu Shaode, who came out of the dormitory building, looked at the old employee building that had lived behind him for decades, and looked at the accommodation building that had begun to fall off the skin. Xu Shaode couldn't help but touch his gray temples. He felt that he was like this building, and he was already old!
Xu Shaode is from Yanjing, but a few decades ago, he was assigned to the newly established Ninth Institute of Solid Circuits after graduation. The history of the entire Ninth Institute is Xu Shaode's half his life.
Since the establishment of the institute, he and many people were assigned to it. At that time, there was almost nothing. Xu Shaode and others worked hard to start and slowly built the institute. A few years later, the institute built a accommodation building, and Xu Shaode also got married and had children. Now he has become the deputy director of the Ninth Institute, in charge of technical research and development.
As usual, Xu Shaode came to the ninth institute, which is much older than the surrounding area. As for research topics, it was already in name only two years ago. In addition to Xu Shaode, there are some old research studies that have not given up on technical research and development. The new researchers assigned to him later are basically just a waste of time.
These new researchers, those who have connections have long tried every means to transfer them away. They are much better than those who are squatting in this small county town. As for those who have not left, they are all trying to find solutions.
There is also one who is like Gao Yang, an assistant researcher under Xu Shaode, who has nothing to do with him and cannot be transferred to his position. He can only squat in the research institute and is almost unloving. I still remember that when Gao Yang first came, he was full of passion and wanted to sacrifice himself for his technology. Now that he has not had time to sacrifice himself, Gao Yang has been ravaged by the life in front of him.
Xu Shaode also understood these times, and the times have changed. Now it is not the era they have passed. We cannot blame those who left the institute for not wanting to stay here, nor can we blame Gao Yang for working here. We can only say that it is the institute for some reason. We are really unable to meet the salary, and we can only pay 70% to 80% of the research funds, not to mention research funds.
"XCM," Gao Yang ran over abnormally, with an excited look on his face, "Sir, please go to his office!"
"What's the matter?" Xu Shaode said with a puzzled look. There will basically be no major events in the institute for several years. As for major research topics, it is no longer their turn to be a small institute.
Gao Yang said with a hint of excitement, "I don't know much, but it seems that someone from Yanjing is coming!"
