"♫ Merry Merry Christmas"
"♫ Lonely Lonely Christmas"
"♫ I want to send my blessings, but I don't know to whom. Our love is tied in a dead knot..."
The intermittent singing seeped silently through the crack in the window and into Chen Yansen's ears.
In the Chip Design Department, Mike Keller and Wu Shengyu were hunched over a laptop, their eyes glued to the screen as they methodically analyzed the Orange Z1's instruction encoding and pipeline efficiency.
"From an encoding efficiency standpoint, the Orange Z1 has lower access power consumption than the ARM Cortex-A9. Using extended instructions for privilege-level control also effectively reduces system call power consumption. Boss, did you write this?"
Mike mumbled to himself before finally looking up at Chen Yansen, his face a mask of shock.
He had no idea when Chen Yansen had started preparing this, but from his knowledge of ARM, the development cycle for any CPU architecture was never less than two years.
