Chapter 1451 Chip Fraud Incident

I have to say that Mr. Jiang still attaches great importance to Yang Ming.

The two talked until dinner time.

Originally, Mr. Jiang wanted to invite Yang Ming to the dinner party in person, but due to an unexpected incident, the other party had to deal with it and asked Secretary Li to send Yang Ming back.

Yang Ming returned to the Oriental Mandarin Hotel.

Going to have dinner with He Chaoluo and the others.

Have a night's rest.

Early the next day.

Today is September 29, 1995.

Yang Ming didn't plan to go anywhere today, so he stayed in the hotel.

When Yang Ming and He Chaoluo had breakfast in the hotel, they took a walk in the courtyard on the first floor.

At this time, Yang Ming found a sneaky man walking towards him.

Generally speaking, with Yang Ming's current status, as long as he encounters a suspicious person, he will shout and the surrounding security personnel will immediately stop him.

Of course, Yang Ming also had his bodyguards not far away.

Yang Ming didn't call anyone.

"Mr. Yang."

"Who are you?"

Although the other party looked a little sneaky in his dress, he didn't think he was a vicious person.

It was precisely because of that that he didn't shout.

"Mr. Yang, I have something I hope you can help with."

Something happened?

Yang Ming still felt strange.

Just like in the previous life, an ordinary person met Li Jiacheng and said, "Mr. Li, I want your help with something."

However, wait and see if Li Jiacheng will pay attention to the other party?

This is basically impossible.

Yang Ming smiled and asked, "What's the matter?"

"It's all here."

The other party secretly took out an envelope from his body and handed it to Yang Ming respectfully. When he saw that no one was chasing him, he left in a hurry.

An envelope?

When Yang Ming was about to take it apart and take a look, he suddenly felt that it was not suitable here.

Just leave here.

Go upstairs to the luxurious suite.

When he took out the letter and opened it, he just glanced at the content and was immediately shocked.

This immediately reminded him of a chip fraud incident in China in his previous life.

Moreover, there may be more than one, which has indeed had a very serious impact on domestic chips.

Obviously, this one is also a report letter.

Yang Ming put the letter aside, and then recalled the chip fraud incident in his previous life that shocked the country and the world.

Chen Jin, before the "Hanxin No. 1" incident, was an undisputed genius in everyone's eyes.

As the main person in charge of the development of country Z's chip technology in the future, Chen Jin has shown extraordinary learning talent since he was a child. His learning ability is very strong, especially his math and reasoning skills, which are among the best among children of the same age.

People have praised Chen Jin since he was a child, saying that this child will definitely have a future when he grows up.

Before the "Hanxin No. 1" incident, he did not disappoint his parents and those who had been optimistic about him since childhood.

Chen Jin graduated from high school with honors and was admitted to Tongji University in Shanghai. Here, Chen Jin, who had been interested in mathematical knowledge since he was a child, came into contact with the computer major, which was still very rare in country Z at that time.

Chen Jin was quickly attracted by the rich knowledge contained in the computer major. He has been proficient in mathematical operations and other related content since he was a child, and he quickly mastered basic knowledge after being exposed to computers. But the more he delved into it, the more Chen Jin felt the great charm of computers.

Therefore, Chen Jin decided to continue studying computer science. At that time, in terms of computer professional capabilities, Country M must be the most powerful. Therefore, Chen Jin will also study abroad in the United States and study computer science as his learning goal.

With his extraordinary talent, Chen Jin successfully received the admission notice from the Computer Science Department of Texas University in Country M.

Full of longing, he went to country M.

After arriving in M ​​country, Chen Jin seemed to be in heaven. There is no other reason. Compared with the country’s domestic computer development level at that time, the level of computer development in country M was simply as high as in the sky or on the ground.

When Chen Jin came to Country M, he felt Country M's advanced advantages in the computer field. He believes that it is impossible for Country Z to catch up with Country M in a short period of time.

And it was this thought that paved the way for the crimes he would commit in the future.

During his studies at the University of Texas, Chen Jin worked very hard, and he had considerable love and persistence in the computer science major.

And this love and persistence also rewarded him.

He successfully graduated with a master's degree and successfully stayed in school to study for a doctoral degree.

As one of the top universities in the world for computer science, not everyone can easily get a PhD in computer science from the University of Texas.

But Chen Jin successfully did it with his own talent and hard work.

In 1998, Chen Jin successfully obtained a doctorate in computer science from the University of Texas. As a top student majoring in computer science at a top university, Chen Jin naturally entered Motorola, one of the best companies in the world at that time.

At that time, Motorola was not only a large company, but also one of the most well-known communications companies in the world.

In the past, Motorola's most glorious era once occupied nearly 70% of orders in the communications market. The famous slogan of Armstrong's moon landing in human history, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind" was transmitted to the earth through Motorola's communication equipment.

Motorola had a huge lead in processors at that time. This advantage was not only for backward countries, but also for the whole world. It can be said that Motorola at that time was a monument in the field of communications and a dream place for all talents in the computer professional field.

With his high education and superb computer skills, Chen Jin successfully entered Motorola and became an electronic engineer.

This position is dedicated to testing and researching Motorola's chips. Chen Jin took this opportunity to come into contact with the most advanced chips in the world at that time.

During this period, Chen Jin's daily task was to conduct various tests on the developed chips to detect the operating efficiency of these chips. After long-term testing, Chen Jin found that the technical level of these chips was indeed very high, and was much ahead of the domestic ones. But if you want to copy these chips, it may not be particularly difficult. This fleeting thought provided him with ideological support for his subsequent fraud.

Chen Jin did not stay in country M for long. After briefly working and studying in several large companies, Chen Jin returned to Country Z to start his own career.

At this time, Country Z was deeply troubled by chip problems.

The country's need to develop the electronic communications field was very urgent, but at that time, country Z did not have the chips that could provide support. Without chip support, it would be impossible for electronic communication technology to develop even without a base.

Relying on foreign chip technology for a long time, the electronic communication network we have established ourselves is like an undefended wall to those from abroad who can enter and exit at will. Even if our country doesn't care about these, it insists on using foreign chips.

Foreign companies may not necessarily be willing to provide long-term support and provide related products. Once supply is cut off, my country's electronic communications field will face a huge crisis.

As a result, my country at that time had a different desire and expectation for independent research and development of chips.

As a talent who studied computer science at a top university in country M and also entered the world's best communications company, Chen Jin is simply the person the country needs most.

Chen Jin naturally knew that the country had a strong need for talents, and it was for this reason that he returned to China.

After he returned to China, he applied for a job to Jiaotong University, one of the best universities in country Z.

In Chen Jin's description, he not only has a high degree of education and high level, but also holds a chip development position at Motorola, and is very knowledgeable about chip development.

Under his rhetoric, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, which was in urgent need of talents for chip research and development, quickly recruited Chen Jin.

As a senior talent listed on his resume as having worked on chip development for Motorola, Shanghai Jiao Tong University specially created a chip research studio with Chen Jin as the core.

The leaders of Shanghai Jiaotong University are all looking forward to it, hoping that this young man who has returned to China can create a miracle for Shanghai Jiaotong University and country Z.

Just two years later, Chen Jin led his team to announce the successful development of its independently developed "Hanxin No. 1".

This not only shocked the leading cadres of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, but also shocked relevant experts across the country. In just two years, a few staff members completed several years of work for hundreds of Motorola designers, which is really unbelievable.

Out of curiosity, countless big names in Chinese academic circles attended Chen Jin's chip launch conference.

At the press conference, Chen Jin introduced that "Hanxin No. 1" is a new chip developed by himself.

It is built using the same 0.18 micron technology used by world-famous companies such as Motorola.

A small chip with an area of ​​less than two fingernails is equipped with a 32-bit processor that can run 200 million times per second.

You must know that the supercomputer built by the state in Country Z at that time could only operate less than 100 billion times per second.

"Hanxin No. 1" can produce a chip that can perform 200 million operations per second in a space the size of a fingernail, which is also extremely outstanding in the world.

With the super ability of "Hanxin No. 1", Chen Jin has won many honors. Based on his contribution, Jiaotong University hired him as a professor and granted him the status of dean of the School of Microelectronics of Jiaotong University.

The higher authorities also recognized this high-end talent and were very satisfied with his works, awarding him the title of "Yangtze River Scholar".

Amid the praise from the outside world, Chen Jin seemed to have become the most watched technological star in country Z at that time, and a great man who saved country Z's chip development career.

But Chen Jin knew that he was not such a person. He was just a liar who created a scam.

At the beginning of the research and development, Chen Jin never thought about truly developing homemade chips for our country that could catch up with Country M.

In his mind, it is impossible for country Z's chips to catch up with country M's. When he took over the homemade chip project, he made plans to weave a scam and profit from it.

Since the chips from country M are so easy to use, just use the chips from country M and replace them with a layer of country Z leather.

So he used a lot of money to ask colleagues who were still working at Motorola to steal the source code of Motorola's chips. He hopes to use this source code to create a country Z version of Motorola chips. But this method did not meet his expectations. The performance of the chip produced by applying the original code is not as good as that of the original Motorola chip.

This made Chen Jin very angry. Did he really want to develop his own chips? But I am a test engineer, so where do I get the experience to develop my own chips?

Chen Jin weaves a scam and makes fake chips to defraud huge sums of money. But the scam was finally exposed and the truth came out.

After some hesitation, he made up his mind. Since changing the skin doesn't work, then just don't change the skin and just change the name. He asked his brother to go to country M to purchase Motorola chips for himself.

After the brothers brought all these chips back to country Z, Chen Jin took over these latest Motorola chips.

He chose the most direct and brutal method to rename the chip.

He ordered people to use sandpaper to remove all the Motorola logo on the surface of the chip, and then printed the logo of his studio on it. In this way, the "Hanxin No. 1", which has the same level as Motorola in M ​​country, was born.

When someone sees this, they can’t help but ask, doesn’t such an important product as “Hanxin No. 1” need testing? Will there be any abnormalities found during the detection process?

How could Chen Jin not think of these problems? He had already prepared countermeasures.

During the chip development process, companies will inevitably participate in chip testing. In order not to expose the true situation of "Hanxin No. 1", Chen Jin chose to bribe the company that did the inspection and testing of "Hanxin No. 1".

He created a shell company to contract the testing of "Hanxin No. 1" and then outsourced these tests to other companies in country Z. These subcontracted companies were bribed by Chen Jin with large sums of money. Naturally, they avoided mentioning the similarities between "Hanxin No. 1" and Motorola's chips, and only submitted their own performance inspection reports.

After receiving the report, Chen Jin will take the opportunity to claim credit from SJTU to prove the progress and amazing level of his chip development. Hand over a large amount of project funds after receiving the inspection report time and time again. Under Chen Jin's operation, Shanghai Jiao Tong University paid him a total of 1.1 billion yuan in the process of chip research and development.

This huge amount of money was collected by Chen Jin after he paid the outsourcing company's testing fees and bribery fees. This huge wealth made Chen Jin more determined to carry out the scam. He went further and further, weaving a shocking scam for the whole country.

. . .

The Chen Jin and Han Xin No. 1 fraud incident, which Yang Ming remembered in his previous life, shocked the country and abroad.

On the other hand, it also shows that domestic chip development was very backward at that time and was far from being able to compare with domestic ones. It was precisely because they were too eager to make breakthroughs that domestic companies were deceived.

Of course, there has been more than one chip fraud incident. There have been several such incidents, all of which have defrauded the country of a large amount of funds. This has also led to the failure of domestic chip development, which has wasted a lot of time.

Yang Ming didn't expect that this kind of thing would happen now.

Because the letter of report that that person sent him was about a certain chip company and a doctor who had committed fraud to obtain national scientific research funds.
