Chapter 152: 1st in the world

From the moment when he decided to challenge the global monopoly of general-purpose chips, Liu Fan was not afraid of them knowing, and as the preparations for these days deepened, Liu Fan became more and more excited.
Taking advantage of the spread of news, Liu Fan directly announced to the public that five days later, Core Technology held a press conference.
Five days later, Hangzhou ’s comfortable weather brought everyone a pleasant mood. Outside the Sheraton gate, rows of reporters erected "cannons". The business lineup that arrived today was far beyond everyone's estimates.
As a chip company, Alibaba Technology's conference attracted the companies in the chip industry first. As one of the shareholders of Alibaba Technology, Huawei Hisilicon and Cambrian, and its competitors Ziguang and Huatian Micro More than 20 chip companies including Huada and Huada successively arrived.
In addition to chip companies, sensor entrepreneurs who are also semiconductors have also come a lot, especially the sensor alliances that have previously fought against the sensor giants.
Excluding these semiconductor industry companies, a large number of celebrity entrepreneurs were gathered at the press conference. The first was BAT, and all of Nidu's enterprises Ali were present, and it was even more interesting that all the leaders came!
This detail alone has aroused a lot of attention from the media. We must know that from Mulong Technology to Core Technology, there have been many press conferences, but this is the first time that BAT can be present at the same time.
Then there are Ms. Dong of Gree, President Lei of Xiaomi, Liu Qiangdong of Jingdong, Ding Sanshi of NetEase, Zhou Hongwei of 360, and so on. With the appearance of one big coffee after another, everyone is more and more curious about what this press conference is about to say. What, even though some news was revealed before, everyone kept the attitude of keeping secrets as much as possible.
Although the press conference has not yet officially started, the live broadcast on the Internet has been going on from outside the venue. Seeing all the characters from the past gathered together, netizens are inexplicably excited, and this excitement is unclear.
"This lineup has been luxurious to a certain level. If you want to bring this group of people together, you will never see it a few times in your life."
"I'm afraid this is Liu Fan's appeal."
"The big names in China's tech circle are all together."
"If only Dad Ma could be there, I still think Ali belongs to Dad Ma."
"I have a hunch that something will definitely happen today."
...
These more familiar entrepreneurs naturally attract more attention. However, although more entrepreneurs on the scene do not know each other, they are actually big men in various fields of the technology industry.
The reason why everyone wants to be present in person is to show an attitude, an attitude to show themselves, and an attitude to show others.
In fact, everyone knows what is to be released at the press conference today. Originally, it was all over to find someone to come and stand, but everyone tacitly chose to be present in person. In fact, everyone has not said hello to each other before. .
In recent years, while Mulong Technology has brought the rise of Huaxia Technology, everyone has gradually realized that Mulong Technology has another influence in the Huaxia Science and Technology Circle, which is to make everyone more harmonious.
This harmony does not mean that there is no competition between everyone, but that within China, competition has become more benign and the relationship between the big brothers has become more ambiguous.
A very important factor is that Mulong Technology is becoming a core company in the entire Huaxia technology circle in a subtle way, and the corporate culture of this core company is generous, inclusive, and harmonious, so this atmosphere will slowly Affect other businesses.
At 2 pm, the press conference officially started, and Liu Fan took the stage to explain the product directly.
Liu Fan first served a few cold dishes, five new AI-specific chips in the new field. Among them, the AI-specific chips in the medical field led by its subsidiary DeepMind caused a lot of heated discussion in the field.
The research and development of the core technology was still very confidential. You must know that medical care has always been a headache, and where is the best business in Huaxia, it is definitely a hospital.
Of course, the large number of people in China is also a problem, but the backwardness of the medical level is definitely a major reason. This time, the AI-specific chips in the medical field are dedicated to solving the medical level of China.
When all five cold dishes are served, the hot dishes will be served next, and it is a hard dish.
Liu Fan pressed the remote control, and the Dome 550 universal chip appeared on the screen.
When the performance test data of the Qiongqiang 550 and the comparison data with Intel's latest general-purpose chip are in front of everyone, those in the industry who did not know this data in advance showed a shocked expression.
The comparison chip this time is different from the previous one. The performance of the Qiongqiang 550 is 1.35 times that of the other party. It does not seem to be very high, but for general-purpose chips, a 1% lead is precious.
What is the concept of 35% performance lead? Www.EbookFREE.me ~ Don't look at the development speed of special-purpose chips, especially AI-specific chips in recent years. It seems that the performance has doubled every year, but for For general-purpose chips, it is impossible to achieve this abnormal performance increase.
Now it is entirely because fortunately that everyone's architecture has changed, which has allowed everyone's chips to have a notable breakthrough. However, as long as the architecture is unchanged after the breakthrough, it is difficult to make a breakthrough.
According to the Turing winner in 17 years, the chip performance improvement will not even exceed 3% every year. Of course, everyone's new architecture has broken this statement, but it is still difficult to improve 35% at once.
And now the biggest problem for the chip industry is that the process has reached a bottleneck. Intel can now make general-purpose chips for the 10nm process, and Qualcomm, Apple, Samsung, and Core Technology can make 5nm process mobile phone chips. Later, it will become more and more difficult to improve this process.
Even if Samsung can smell the shameless data all day long, but when your product really hits the market, everyone's eyes are clear, so at this time, the performance of such a core technology is an absolute sense Beyond.
And just when everyone was lamenting the extraordinary structure of the living water, Liu Fan suddenly showed you a piece of data, a piece of data that more people didn't expect, the Qiongqiang 550, 5nm process!
For a moment, the entire conference room was silent, because most of the people in this room understood the significance of this matter. Intel has worked hard for so many years and has such a strong foundation that it has just challenged the general-purpose chip of the 7nm process.
But the dome 550 has realized a general-purpose chip with a 5nm process.
This is.
The world's first!
