Master of Parallel Imports: Starting from Tablets to Make Domestic Cores

Lin Zhenyu, MBA, is recognized as a "parallel importer" in the chip industry. Rebirth in 2013, the chip factory left by his father was being forced to sell by his uncle. Redmi 799 is about to be released, and the copycat phones in Huaqiangbei will be dead. He looked at the line of words on his father's notebook - "Make Chinese own chips" - and wrote one word: OK. Then a light blue light curtain appeared and a 28nm low-power chip solution was given. Not technical? It doesn't matter, he understands the market. Don't understand design? It doesn't matter, he hired HiSilicon's layout engineer who was laid off and the physical design expert who returned from TSMC. Start with tablets and avoid the edge of Redmi. Get the mobile phone chip and become the "Fire Dragon Nemesis". Then when sanctions came, the entire chain was localized. Twelve years later, when the 3nm chip was released, the audience stood up. Someone asked him: Mr. Lin, how did you, a business administration student, make a chip? He opened the drawer and found his father's notebook inside. The first page said "Make Chinese own chips" and the last page said "Okay". [This is not the story of a genius, it is the story of a parallel importer who, with a group of underappreciated people, took apart the word "impossible" one by one.
