Yuanxin and Xinghai are high-quality partners of Texas Instruments.

Whether it is a VCD chip or a cordless phone series, you choose Texas Instruments. You should know that improving the process and improving yields require continuous use of orders.

With the repaid, Deyi also supports Yuanxin EDA very much, sharing various data about the birth of the fab, providing strong support for Yuanxin EDA's simulation. In turn, Yuanxin EDA also played a role in promoting the improvement of the fab's process and yield.

So when Su Yuanshan proposed to meet, Vincent immediately turned down other things and waited for him.

But Vincenti never expected that Su Yuanshan would take the initiative to let Deyi invest in Xinghai - he admitted that there were not many people who covet Xinghai and even Yuanxin, and Deyi was one of them.

After confirming that he did not understand the wrong meaning, Vincent's mind quickly turned around.

He immediately recalled the recent rumors and looked at Su Yuanshan with a look of surprise.

"Are you really planning to acquire cyrix?"

Su Yuanshan smiled and nodded: "In fact, even if we don't acquire cyrix, Xinghai plans to reach deeper cooperation with your company through cross-holding. It's just that cyrix is ​​a bit difficult recently, and we are willing to help them overcome the difficulties."

"No, you are trying to pull Texas Instruments to bet on Cyrix's lawsuit and future with you." Vincent immediately shook his head and pointed directly at the core of the problem.

"The acquisition of Cyrix is ​​not a gamble, but based on the result of careful consideration. We conducted a rigorous analysis and believed that Intel will eventually reach a settlement with Cyrix. After all, your company still has the architecture authorization of x86. Under the current legal interpretation, I believe that a just judge will definitely make a judgment that is conducive to the development of the entire semiconductor industry."

"After all, Intel is now very powerful. A CPU company without rivals does not conform to the spirit of Sherman's antitrust law."

Listening to Su Yuanshan's calm analysis, Vincenti said in a deep voice: "You forgot that there is still a PowerPc Alliance."

"In the near future, powerpc will definitely lose."

Vincenti raised his eyebrows: "Why?"

"Because Mr. Gates is a genius, there should be a genius in the PowerPC camp, but it's a pity that this gentleman went to make a movie."

Vincenti knows who the gentleman Su Yuanshan is talking about is who is filming a movie - that almost paranoid idealist, who has been praised by Robert Noyce, the founder of Silicon Valley, the father of Fairchild Semiconductor and Intel, countless times. He is a person who can enter Noyce's bedroom at will.

Well, his name is Steve Jobs.

However, Su Yuanshan's words obviously could not convince Vincenti. Instead, a smile rose from the corner of his mouth: "So, why don't you choose to join the Powerpc camp? That might defeat the Wintel League."

This is a bit ridiculous - because Su Yuanshan is already known as a genius.

Su Yuanshan sighed softly in his heart.

As an old-fashioned enterprise that can cultivate the founder of Zhang Zhongmou's future wafer factory overlords, Texas Instruments has technology, connections, and policies. But their real glory was in the 1990s, during the period after Niguo Semiconductor retreated.

After the new century, Jimengxin defeated the Doudizhu team of ibm, UMC and Infineon, and successfully stood at the peak of the wafer factory's process and became the overlord.

After that, UMC, Texas Instruments, Nec, Gross and others never had a day to turn around.

With such powerful technical accumulation and resources, Texas Instruments ended up with the same end as Niguo Fabs. I have to say...they have almost nothing to do with their vision.

"That's right, Mr. Vincenti." Su Yuanshan said seriously: "The Wintel Alliance is much more stable and reliable than the PowerPC Alliance, and has a more technical advantage - I can even foresee that Intel will launch new products soon - because they have not worked in-depth with our EDA, so we have reason to believe that they have previously designed products based on other EDAs and will be successful."

"On the other hand, although Moto and ibm are also very strong, the semiconductor industry is ultimately an increasingly segmented industry. In the future, industry giants will definitely subdivided into countless fields, and a giant will be born in each field, and these giants will jointly promote the progress of the entire semiconductor industry. So I don't think their CPU will be more competitive than Intel's CPU."

"That's why we chose to embrace the x86 ecosystem. Even if Texas Instruments is unwilling to join this war, they can choose to cooperate with us in a small way and get involved with the starry sea."

Su Yuanshan said, pursing his lips and chuckled: "Mr. Vincenti, you don't think Yuanxin and Xinghai rose up by gambling, right?"

Vincenti's eyebrows slowly frowned.

The rise of Xinghai and even Yuanxin has long attracted everyone's attention. Even inside ti has analyzed why it suddenly rises.

The result is very surprising, three words: good luck.

But everyone knows that being lucky is just a scam. Everyone is playing with technology, and everyone knows that the following three words actually represent the other three words - vision.

After pondering for a long time, Vincenti let out a light sigh: "I will propose to the board of directors - what is your largest shareholding?"

“About 20%.

Vincenti had no doubts about this number. He nodded, suddenly remembered something, and smiled: "I heard that you have become famous angel investors in Silicon Valley. Have you picked up the treasure?"

"Yes, there are so many treasures." Su Yuanshan replied with a smile.

With Qin Si's general net casting and focusing on fishing tactics, Xinghai invested dozens of small teams like sprinkling wine rice. Although he did not have the same luck as Howard's cordless telephone team, many teams with gadgets were incubated. The most useful one was a company called rendermorphics.

The reason why Qin Si liked R·M was entirely because Su Yuanshan took the initiative to dig a GPU team. The GPU team was extremely excited when they met Su Yuanshan, who fully supported them in 3D. In addition to making chips, they also planned to continue to develop professional graphics API interfaces.

Just when he was about to recruit people, the founder of R·M came to the door and said he wanted to build a professional graphics interface, and then the two sides hit it off. Xinghai didn't do it by himself, and directly invested in R·M, and based on the GPU that Xinghai was designing as a benchmark, tailored an API called directx    3d.

Yes, this is the famous directx in later generations. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be acquired by Microsoft two years later and integrated into the operating system. Because it is not professional and not powerful, it was beaten to the ground by 3dfx's glide and opengl at the beginning, but it cannot hold back the stamina... and finally achieved a turnaround and a big reversal.

In this life, the butterfly wings had already hung a hurricane. Although OpenGL still appeared as promised, Glide disappeared without a trace. However, directx was reborn through time with the blessing of the original 3dfx team.

In the near future, Su Yuanshan plans to connect with R·M and Microsoft.
