CHAPTER 1795: CHAPTER 941: DOMESTIC SELF-DEVELOPED VIRTUAL OPERATING SYSTEM

"Yue."

"Let’s just say, although Microsoft’s Windows operating system has a solid foundation and is used globally, making it hard to shake its position, it’s not without opportunities. And this opportunity, we can create it ourselves."

Xu Bin said very seriously.

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Ding Yue was quite interested and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Aren’t we aiming to build the Metaverse? And the virtual technology involved in the Metaverse, combined with computer and internet technologies, puts us in a position where developing our virtual operating system based on the Metaverse will inevitably become mainstream in the future. I don’t know if Microsoft is researching in this area, but as long as we research well, I think by the time the Metaverse era truly arrives, having our virtual operating system will give us the chance to replace the past Windows operating system and become the global mainstream of a new era."

Xu Bin spoke so much that his mouth was a bit dry.

But he still spoke in an orderly and well-reasoned manner.

Ding Yue understood, Huang Youjie and An Yujia also understood, but only Wen Ruohan felt half-understood after listening.

After all, although Wen Ruohan knew about the Metaverse, as soon as there was talk about operating systems and something about Microsoft’s Windows, it was all a jumble for her.

However, it didn’t really matter if she didn’t understand. After all, this wasn’t Wen Ruohan’s professional field; she just needed to be a good personal secretary for Principal Ding.

"Yue, you have to admit, listening to Bin’s explanation, I think this makes sense. We have to seize the opportunity of the Metaverse."

Huang Youjie agreed greatly after hearing Xu Bin’s words.

Ding Yue stroked his chin, muttering, "Hmm, there’s logic in it, but Bin."

As he spoke, Ding Yue couldn’t help but look at Xu Bin.

"Hmm?"

Xu Bin asked puzzledly, "What’s up, Yue? You think what I said just now is a bit unrealistic?"

"Not exactly."

Ding Yue shook his head and said, "I just want to know, as you said, when we develop a domestically self-developed virtual technology operating system, is a 3-nanometer chip sufficient?"

Compared to 5-nanometer chips, 3-nanometer chips offer a substantial improvement, but virtual technology operating systems are definitely not that simple, requiring higher demands on chips.

"Judging by all parameters, a 3-nanometer chip should be enough. Additionally, the optimization of our virtual technology can definitely be done well, so don’t worry about that, Yue."

Xu Bin said confidently.

Seeing Xu Bin’s strong confidence, Ding Yue felt much more reassured.

If that’s the case, then we just wait for the successful development of the 3-nanometer chip. When the 5-nanometer chip was successfully developed, because it only matched the world’s top chip technology standards, besides solving the domestic chip crisis, Feiyue Group did not expand further.

But this time is different. If the 3-nanometer chip is successfully developed and mass-produced, there will be a lot of room for maneuver, and it might even lead to overtaking in technology, leading the world’s chip technology standards.

At that time, the country will become the first to develop 3-nanometer chip technology.

"Principal Ding, Director Xu, since the 3-nanometer chip is so powerful, should we consider creating electronic products belonging to the Feiyue Group?"

An Yujia suddenly asked.

"Miss An, are you referring to smartphones?"

Ding Yue turned his head and asked An Yujia.

"Yes, smartphones, and smart home products, etc. We can all develop and produce these. Although these market fields are already saturated, precisely because of this, if we seize the next opportunity, we could possibly reshuffle the market."

An Yujia shared her analysis and perspective.

This is also why when the 5-nanometer chip came out, An Yujia didn’t bring this up.

Because whether it’s smartphones or other smart home appliances, and other electronic products, overseas tech companies are using 5-nanometer chips, and they have deep brand heritage.

In such a circumstance, developing domestic smartphones or anything similar is akin to hitting a stone with an egg, and it probably won’t end well.

If there’s no gain, then it’s better not to touch products in this field for the time being.

An Yujia had discussed this with Principal Ding back then, and Principal Ding agreed with An Yujia’s analysis and strategic vision, so Feiyue Group only used the 5-nanometer chip for robots and new energy vehicles, both of which have had very positive responses so far.

But things will be different once the 3-nanometer chip emerges.

Overseas tech companies, whether it’s ASML or Island Electromechanical, are all actively developing 3-nanometer chip technology, but creating 3-nanometer chip technology isn’t easy. Challenges come one after another, and even though these overseas tech companies have strong technical foundations, they have to progress step by step and can’t achieve everything overnight.

Currently, Mist City Arts and Science University’s lithography chip technology team is also working hard to develop the 3-nanometer chip process lithography machine and its ancillary chip technologies.
