Chapter 1783: fall through


An island in southeast, Hsinchu.
The semiconductor industry here can be called the engine of the island's economy. At that time, the economy of an island took off and became the 'Asian Four Little Dragons'. The driving force came from this. After decades of flicking with fingers, the highlight of the island is still only here, but the opposite side of the strait is truly earth-shaking.
At this moment, a review conference is being held in a company that is the world's number one foundry. The host of the meeting held a light pen at the projected PPT on the wall, and stated painfully: "We organized the staff and analyzed several samples purchased from the mainland overnight, and the situation was very bad."
On the projected PPT is a chip image with the shell removed, and many details on the wafer are photographed with a high-power electron microscope. Those who can participate in the conference are all industry insiders. When you look at the dense and complicated lines in the pictures, they show the dignity of the enemy.
"Radiation Electronics has released their" Radiation 1 "series of products, which not only have extremely high-end server and mainframe chips, but also personal digital products for ordinary households. We now see this chip, which is specifically targeted at Intel mainstream Rivals of consumer products. "
The light pen held by the conference host was shaking, the light spots were shaking, and a group of people in the conference room exclaimed in a loud noise. Someone asked skeptically: "How can this radiant electron on the mainland develop a three-nanometer process?"
This problem has been repeatedly rising in the brains of countless people. It is said that the mainland can get a 28-nanometer yield, and it is good to advance to 14-nanometer. But suddenly a 3 nanometer process is run out, which is too powerful.
The smaller the process technology, the higher the difficulty, the more transistors can be arranged on the wafer per unit area, the more computing cores, the higher the frequency, and the faster the processing capacity. This technology is even ready to be used by a major island manufacturer, but has not yet used this level of process.
For a long time, in order to keep the technology gap with the mainland, an island has restricted the transfer of advanced technology. They even continue to form an industrial alliance with Japan and South Korea, and the bite is to suppress the mainland-they cry to maintain the status quo, that is, to make money and look down on you.
It is only now that the mainland has come up with 3 nanometer technology, and the situation is different. The moderator continued: "We have contacted Intel and they are very concerned about this.
According to our analysis, the technology source of radiation electronics used in consumer chips is Eagle Sauce AMD. AMD has just announced that it has indeed licensed a large number of consumer-grade chips to Radiation Electronics. "
This one caused an uproar in the conference room, and someone asked aloud, "Why is AMD doing this? Do they not want the current market for consumer chips?"
Radiation Electronics has entered the server and mainframe markets by purchasing related patents from IBM, and it also needs a license in the consumer PC market, otherwise the sale of chips would violate other people's patent rights. If it's not a torn face, the basic business rules must be followed.
The moderator of the conference continued: "The specific agreement between Radiation Electronics and AMD is unknown to outsiders, but it is reported that they have spent billions of dollars plus a large number of advanced patented technologies to trade with AMD. It is also clear to lead. "
That being said, everyone understood something. AMD and Intel have been fighting for years in the personal computer market. AMD has been suppressed by Intel, and its market share is far worse than the latter. Now it was obvious that the hungry wolf had collected money and radiated electrons to come in and mess up.
"Intel is in trouble."
"We're in trouble."
"What exactly is a radiant electron doing? It wants to grab the market, why should it release the 3 nanometer process at one go? This time from 14 skip 10 skip 7 skip 5, directly 3 nanometers, three or four generations in the middle The technological divide drove us to the wall. "
"The soil on the other side has a total of money. Everyone will smash tens of billions of billions of special funds. Where can we fight?"
When it comes to money from technology, the elite in the conference room suddenly lost his temper. They used to be a little technically confident and felt that they would not be easily overtaken by their opponents anyway, but now they are discovering that-the opponents are catching up so bluntly. What can you do?
When it comes to money, this is even more temperamental. The idiot TV on the island is discussing every day that the 426 on the other side cannot afford tea eggs, but the elite knows that the Turkish people across the strait are rich-the best cities on an island look like the urban-rural junction of the mainland.
The semiconductor industry is fighting for capital and technology. Now both of them can't fight, and they are still a ghost!
"Don't panic, be calm." The boss of the company spoke in the conference room. "Facing a difficult situation now, it can be more difficult than when we started a business? Isn't there just one more highly-skilled competitor? Well, the sauce family has put into production a 3 nanometer process. "
When the boss spoke, everyone could only settle down. The next issue is naturally how to deal with it—accelerating the construction of a new factory in Yingjiajia, updating its technical level, and enhancing its competitiveness.
It is nothing more than these things.
"Also, we should unite with Intel. They should also face the competition of radiation electronics, and they will certainly not be happy." The company boss was calm and calm, "Intel should not cooperate with radiation electronics?
"No," the conference host quickly shook his head. "Radiation Electronics originally wanted to spend money on Intel's related patents on the X86 architecture, but Intel flatly rejected it. Now Intel is trying to sue this Radiation Electronics because the patent details are still Can find many handles. "
Intel, a leader in the industry, was still unyielding, and the atmosphere in the conference room was much easier. The boss of the company even cheerfully said: "Look, we still have friends. We can also draw Samsung from Nanbei, Toshiba from the foot basin ..."
Listening to the talk of the boss Barabara, the conference room was much happier. Even the host of the meeting laughed, as if calm to find the backbone. It ’s just that the boss ’s speech ca n’t stop, and everyone ’s heart is heavy as soon as he stops—the smile on his face cannot cover the pain in his heart.
Obviously you can easily make money by splitting your legs, but now you have to rely on the ability to mix.
Uh ... no!
Obviously, you can easily make money by accumulating technology ~ EbookFREE.me ~ But now you have to chase after hard work. This is not a victory, right? Today the mainland can make 3 nanometers. What will they produce tomorrow? The speed of catching up and surpassing is too scary.
And just when a bunch of people were trying to calm themselves down, someone suddenly came in and shouted outside the conference room, "Chairman, it's not good. That radiation electron is crazy."
"What's wrong?" Everyone was surprised.
"Three nanometers" is enough to cause headaches. What disaster will not happen? Everyone is feeling heavy now, so don't mess around, right?
The comer continued: "Radiation Electronics announced to the outside that it will open its own technology patent library to Continental Semiconductor Company for free and seek common development. They expressed their hope to introduce more social funds for a better future.
Lying down!
What a ghost!
What the future looks like is dim.
The lunatic on the other side is not just smashing people's rice bowls, this is going to smash the pot!
