The distance between Wuzhen and Shanghai is actually about the same as that from Hangzhou. It only takes about half an hour by car.
However, due to a rare heavy snowfall in Jiangnan last night, the vehicles were slippery and the speed was low. In addition, there were many road accidents after entering the city, so it actually took nearly two hours to stop and go.
This is the first time Wu Hao has come to Shanghai Microelectronics Research Institute, and it feels very different from the research institutes he has seen.
The research institutes he had seen before were all very quaint. They were generally old buildings from the 1970s and 1980s, and the trees in the park were very lush.
The Shanghai Microelectronics Research Institute in front of him was very young, even very fashionable, and the building facilities were very modern.
"Haha, Xiao Wu!"
After getting out of the car, Song Chunming and several people greeted him at the door of the office building. Seeing Wu Hao next time, he immediately responded enthusiastically.
"Hello, Song Suo, long time no see." Wu Hao quickly stepped forward and shook hands with a smile.
"Yeah, long time no see. You kid, you've been to Shanghai several times, why don't you come and see me." Song Chunming patted him on the shoulder, then looked at him with a friendly expression.
For Song Chunming, Wu Hao is very special. The young man in front of him had witnessed Zhuang Zhuo's growth with his own eyes.
And more importantly, he helped take the most critical step for this kid. It was precisely because of his introduction that Wu Hao and Mr. Zhao Hongzhe were connected and the project was facilitated. In the end, Wu Hao and the others got their first pot of gold, and more importantly, their abilities were recognized by the military.
What he didn't expect was that the fledgling kid he looked at at the beginning would suddenly turn around and now become a world-famous technology giant.
Of course, these are not important. What is important is that in the hands of this boy, he has come up with many cutting-edge technologies. These technological products have really amazed the whole world.
There are even some technologies and products that are already quietly changing the world. If nothing else, he and his family are using some products of Haoyu Technology.
For Wu Hao, the old man in front of him was his great benefactor, and even more so, his bole. If it hadn't been for him to be the matchmaker, Wu Hao and the others might have really taken some money, but they would still be struggling slowly, far from being as smooth and rapid as they are now.
Moreover, Song Chunming also took good care of him in the past few years. Although the two of them don't meet often, they still keep in touch from time to time. Wu Hao will also call during the holidays to say hello, send some of his thoughts, etc.
Therefore, the relationship between the two can be said to be very close, and it is precisely because of this that Wu Hao proposed this project to him.
Song Chunming was not only very interested in this, but also helped him with many ideas.
Wu Hao once wanted to cooperate with Shanghai Microelectronics Research Institute alone. It was only at Song Chunming's suggestion that Wu Hao gave up this idea and then made the project public to attract other partners to join.
As Song Chunming analyzed, what this project lacks is not funds, but resources. In terms of funds, Wu Hao and the others can provide it, but in terms of resources, their family cannot handle it.
Especially the promotion and use of chips after successful development requires the joint efforts of many people, and it is not enough for them alone.
You must know that the development of a chip is not only about hardware, but also about software. A system program that matches this chip must be developed to maximize the performance of this chip.
"Haha, isn't this coming?" Wu Hao smiled and looked at the surrounding environment and said: "This place will be completed and opened soon."
Song Chunming smiled and nodded: "Thanks to the country's increasing support for the chip industry in recent years, as a research institution, we have naturally benefited from it.
The original research institute was in the center of the city. The entire building was built in the 1960s and the conditions were relatively poor.
Therefore, when the funds were available to carry out renovations and improve the research environment, it was found that there was no value in renovations and had to be pushed to reconstruction.
Although the support is strong and the funds are relatively abundant, you still need to spend some money to build a new research institute.
As for us, we are unwilling to touch those precious research funds. In the end, let’s just move it out. It happened that the price of land in the urban area was relatively expensive, so we sold the land where the original research institute was located, found a new piece of land here, and used the money from the land sale to build the new research institute.
Although transportation may be a little inconvenient compared to urban areas, the research environment is much better. "
Wu Hao nodded when he heard this. This is probably also a trend in major cities. Especially in big cities, land is very tight and land prices are rising rapidly.
Therefore, in order to promote urban development, more and more institutions have begun to move out of the city center and disperse to the suburbs of the city under unified coordination.
For these institutions that move out, although there will be some inconvenience, they can get a better office environment and more abundant funds, so why not do it.
After saying that, Song Chunming immediately led him: "Let's go, let's go in and say, it's too cold outside. I haven't seen such heavy snow in many years. Early in the morning, my granddaughter was excited outside. I started playing in the snow and refused to go into the house despite being urged by my family."
As he and Song Chunming walked in, Wu Hao smiled and nodded: "Indeed, such snow is rare in the north.
Fortunately, it has cleared up. If it rains again, there will be disaster. "
"Good snow knows the season. There is little rain in the Jiangnan region after winter this year. This snow has greatly alleviated the drought. It seems that next year will be another good harvest year." Song Chunming said with a smile.
"How about Wuzhen? It's lively."
Wu Hao smiled and shook his head: "It's lively, but there are too many things going on, and I can't cope with them. No, I can't bear to run away from you to take a break."
"Hahahaha, how can you, a busy man like you, stay here with nothing to do?" Song Chunming nodded at him, and then said kindly to him: "Since you are here, then feel at ease. Let's talk about things first, and come home with me in the evening , I’ll ask my wife to cook some dishes, and we’ll have a drink.”
"It's too troublesome." Wu Hao said with a smile.
Song Chunming waved his hand and said: "No trouble, no trouble, she also wants to meet you, a young and talented person.
She works as a teacher in a university, teaching industrial economics, and she often gives examples of your successes. She knows that you and I are close, so she often asks me to invite you home so that she can meet you. Otherwise, it would be too unreasonable to cite so many examples without even meeting him once. "
When Wu Hao heard this, he smiled and shook his head, and then said helplessly with a regretful expression: "I'm afraid it's too late this time. I have to rush back at night. Everyone over there is waiting."
