In 2005, Professor Chip stood on the podium and said, "It is better to buy than build, and it is better to rent than buy." Lu Yuan had just been reborn, and the memory of his previous life told him that this sentence would make a country stuck in the high-tech field for twenty years.
He has no golden fingers and no system. All he has is the memory he accumulated after spending fifteen years at the Institute of Microelectronics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences - he knows which technical route will work, knows who has real skills in this direction, and knows that if someone had chosen that path back then, everything would have been different.
Starting from the MCU-specific EDA tool "Fengshen 1.0", To the Kunlun chip, RISC-V ecosystem, and 7nm yield counterattack against TSMC, and then to the carbon-based chip detonating the ISSCC - eighteen years later, a sentence rang out at the White House emergency meeting: "Whose technology did that Chinese named Lu steal?"
Answer: No one. He wrote it all himself.
A story of twenty years of solitary breakthrough and a generation of people swimming upstream in the era of "buying is worse than building".
