- "Gentlemen, for centuries alchemists tried to make gold from base metals. Today, we make microchips from sillicon, which is common sand; but far better than gold."
- ― Max Zorin
The Zorin Microchip was a fictional advanced microchip resistant to electro-magnetic pulse damage manufactured by Zorin Industries. The item appeared in EON Productions' 1985 James Bond film A View to a Kill.
History[]
James Bond is sent to Siberia, where he finds 003 buried by an avalanche and recovers a microchip from the corpse. With the help of field agent Kimberley Jones, he escapes the ambushing Soviet troops. Back in England, Q informs M, Bond and the Minister of Defence that the retrieved microchip's design is an exact match of an advanced microchip resistant to electro-magnetic pulse damage manufactured by Zorin Industries, indicating the company is leaking top secret technology to the Soviets.
