Chapter 2938: 64-bit processor

No one would have imagined that Hanxin Technology Co., Ltd. actually used more aggressive behavior when facing such an anti-monopoly investigation. Didn't you say that we occupied the market and constituted a monopoly?
Well, then we will occupy a larger market and use more monopolies to prove our strength. It is your own disappointment!
Han country has already started to stand up, and has already begun to fight against Ying country head-on.
Of course, this is also necessary. This is a precedent and a bad beginning. If this continues, the Eagle Country does not know how much wool it will cut from Han.
The Han country will never let the tricks of the Ying people succeed. They must carry it hard, and they have to tell the Eagle country that your conspiracy is impossible to succeed and will inevitably be bankrupt.
The practice in the Kimchi country has begun to give momentum to Hanxin Technology, and now, when they returned to Han, Qin Guan naturally came to Huating with enthusiasm and came here to cheer Hanxin Technology. Up.
As for that Cui Enxi, she also came back with Qin Guan. Since she is unwilling to stay in the Kimchi country anymore, for fear of some retaliation, then bring her back. The follow-up arrangements don’t have to worry about by yourself, naturally they are relevant. The person in charge will take care of it and invite her to join a certain movie, play a role or something. Now Qin Guan really doesn’t have any good scripts. If there is one, it will be later. When the vigorous operation begins, she must be It's time to shoot a few new films reflecting the face of the Navy.
At that time, let Cui Enxi be the protagonist. If there is no scandal at that time, it can be used. The main reason is that Chen Rui is full of disgust at being an actor, and Xiaoxia, perform one or two. It is enough to have a reputation. Get out early, and get deeper and deeper. After all, the entertainment industry is a big dyeing tank, especially now, as the country’s economic development is becoming more and more rapid, this trend is always impossible. Containment.
At this time, Hanxin Technology is still immersed in happiness. They will not care about what Eagle Country’s anti-monopoly investigation is. With President Qin in charge, no one can stir up troubles, and they have now let Samsung Electronics As their foundry, their own product line will be more concise.
"At present, our Hanxin No. 5 chip plans to use a 64-bit system, so that there is a larger addressing space and at the same time with our increasing memory." After Qin Guan came over, he immediately called. A conference, as a technology company, must first determine the correctness of the technical route.
In the early years, the 8008 chip used a 16-bit system, and soon it rose to a 32-bit system. This kind of system is now the mainstream, but there is a flaw.
2 to the 32nd power, 4G, that is to say, this kind of system, the largest addressing space is 4G, at present, the memory is not so large, so don’t worry, and there is no program that can use such a large space. .
However, technology is constantly evolving. Seeing that with the advancement of memory, after the four memory sticks in the computer box are full, there will be more than 4G possible. Moreover, in some special markets, the pursuit of performance It is endless.
Therefore, the next step of development must be a 64-bit system, but how to develop this is still exquisite.
"The 64-bit route we want to develop must be compatible with 32-bit systems, that is to say, backward compatible." Qin Guan said.
If it is a 64-bit system, this is the easiest, but after making it, all the previous 32-bit systems can no longer be used.
Many software companies have developed various software under the 32-bit system. Now, after upgrading the computer, all kinds of software have to be re-developed. This will greatly increase the cost and cannot establish an effective ecosystem. Therefore, Qin Guan’s suggestion is to develop a compatible 64-bit system.
"That is to say, our processor must design a special set of 64-bit instruction sets to expand the instruction set to accommodate the existing 32-bit instruction set." Qin Guan has not interfered with his own technology for a long time. The route was over, now Qin Guan said it, some people nodded, and some frowned.
"In this case, it may result in not being able to take full advantage of the 64-bit system." Sure enough, someone raised his own question.
The performance of the dedicated 64-bit system is definitely the best. Now it is necessary to use the compatible instruction set method, so that it can't play the performance.
"We are now going to build a ladder." Qin Guan said: "This ladder is getting higher and higher, but every level below is the foundation. If we only build the upper one, it will be a castle in the sky. If both In comparison, I would rather lower the performance slightly, but also have inheritance. After all, this 64-bit system must take a long time to transition, and it may even take ten years. This transition time is 32-bit and 64-bit coexistence. In this era, it is impossible for us to be clear and completely separate. That would lead to the disruption of the market and the loss of users."
Within the company, this technical route has been debated for a long time. This is also the biggest problem facing Hanxin's No. 5 chip. Now, Qin Guan has given them a decision, and they must be compatible, otherwise it is a castle in the sky. Everyone nodded. That's right, President Qin made sense.
However, is it necessary to abandon the research and development of specialized incompatible 64-bit processors?
"Actually, incompatibility also has benefits of incompatibility." Jobs, who also attended the meeting, said.
Jobs’s point of view is different from that of many people. Other personal computers pay attention to compatibility and can be upgraded at any time, but Apple’s computer is closed. Since Jobs went to the helm of Apple Computer, he led Apple Computer. It has embarked on a special path, and it has also come out. Apple Computer's current profitability is also quite strong.
Therefore, if it is not compatible, Jobs agrees with this plan.
"This allows many users to have to transition to 64-bit systems, giving them no choice. In this way, we can also make more. After all, some users are looking for better performance computers."
For example, for some drawing users, a rendering can show the difference between the computers. A poor computer may take a few days to complete the rendering, and a good computer may come out in a few minutes.
For this performance, they must make a trade-off, which is inevitable.
Now, only Jobs dared to insist on his views and questioned Qin Guan's decision.
