Chapter 354 China Core

Wen Tian watched Yang Xing write "Do what you can and lay a solid foundation" on the reports asking for funding, "There is only one word between dreams and fantasies, first of all, you should pay attention to the feasibility of the implementation of the plan." "Don't be too ambitious, first complete the goals set at the annual meeting." And so on, she couldn't help but poke Tan Li, covering her mouth and laughed softly: "Do you look like a teacher to sort out your homework!"

Yang Xingyun wrote a lot, adding his comments to each plan. Although most of them were quasi-decided, he had to give his subordinates a legitimate reason. He always advocated bold suggestions, without reason and not setting an example. Even if he was determined, he had to let his subordinates understand the reason. While wearing a shawl, he suddenly saw a report, and he was hesitant to stop writing. This was a joint proposal by Nebula Electronics and Xingdou Research Institute, hoping that the group would launch a pre-research project for computer universal microprocessors (cpus), and Yang Xingxing was indeed difficult to reply to this project.

Yang Xing had the idea when the group was founded. When Wu Haijun led a team to the United States for inspection, Yang Xing specifically told him to pay attention to talents in this area. In fact, as the most dazzling jewel in the microelectronics industry, there were almost no one among the entrepreneurs in this industry who had not thought about launching the project. And in the late 1990s, CPU manufacturers are still competing for many heroes. The industry leader Intel has not yet developed to the point where he was able to cover the sky later, so it seems that it is not surprising that Nebula Electronics wants to join it.

But after years of baptism in business, Yang Xing's vision and ideas were gone. The ignorant boy when he debuted. The more he paid attention to the relevant industry knowledge under his command, the more he could see the difficulties and unrealistic aspects of many past ideas. For example, the central processing unit (cpu) mentioned in this report is the soul of the computer. Its main function is to interpret computer instructions and process data in computer software. Its size is only the size of a stamp, but it is the computing core and control core of the entire computer. All operations in the computer revolve around reading instructions and decoding and executing instructions. If the computer does nothing without CPU, it is the starting point of everything.

For such important components, countries around the world will regard them as core technologies, but unfortunately, there will be no more than twenty companies in the world that can design and manufacture CPUs in total, and they are basically controlled by consumer electronics powerhouses such as the United States, Europe, Japan and South Korea. In fact, in a broad sense, if you only produce control chips, third world countries still have a certain amount of power to fight back. The S1 "surprise" smartphone chip that Xinyun Electronics just launched was developed by Goldman Sachs in the United States based on the chip design provided by Arm. Recently, Xinyun Electronics also purchased more than 5% of the equity of Arm and officially became one of the major shareholders of Arm. It can barely be considered as designing and manufacturing control chips. No wonder Wu Haijun and others had the idea of ​​launching CPUs. But Yang Xing knew that this matter was far from as simple as the report had imagined, so he called Wu Haijun in Hong Kong and Zhang Rujing, the director of the Stardou Research Institute, to meet him at the "Sky Star City" construction site that is being built.

When Wu Haijun and Zhang Rujing, who were full of suspicion, came to the "Sky Star City" construction site, they saw that the mist covered the deep blue sea surface of Victoria Bay, and the strong smell of earth during construction was filled with the air. Large-scale engineering ships were parked in the bay to clear the soil layer under Kai Tak Airport in the past. This is because Kai Tak Airport has been used for many years, and heavy pollutants such as waste oil that have not been cleaned in time have already penetrated into the underground soil layer. All the surface soil must be removed and anti-fouling treatment was carried out before the construction was officially started. Therefore, before Yang Xing obtained the right to develop this land, he planned ahead and asked Xingyuan Construction under Xinghua Real Estate to invest and acquire several enterprises and research institutions specializing in soil pollution. After buying the land, the construction will be started immediately, which is much earlier than the progress expected by many industry insiders. It is estimated that the cleaning will be completed in just one year.

Although the two were not experts in the construction industry, as senior executives of the company, they were deeply impressed by the young boss's extraordinary foresight. Therefore, when they saw the young boss sitting on the breakwater with his limbs spread out and fishing without any image, they stood respectfully and listened to his instructions. Seeing that they came, Yang Xing put away the empty fishing rod and said with emotion: "I just caught fish here for a long time and found nothing. When asked the fishermen nearby, they said that there were too many boats coming and going here, and the competition was too fierce, so that only one or two fish could survive, and most people could not catch them at all."

Wu Haijun and the others heard that Yang Xing had some meaning in their words and did not dare to guess casually, so they could only wait for him to speak silently. Yang Xing reached out and asked Wen Tian and other assistants beside Hou to bring out a few folding chairs for them to sit down. At this time, Yang Xing took out the report and put it in front of them and asked, "You are the idea?" The two looked at each other and replied, "It was decided by everyone together." Yang Xing shook his head and said, "The words in the report are so radical, it has simply risen to the point where it is not available on the CPU project. I am a national sinner! Unlike your writing, it must have been written by outsiders!" Wu Haijun smiled helplessly: "This is Li Guangnan's idea!"

Yang Xing said "Oh". He guessed just now that it was Li Guangnan's behind-the-scenes planner. As one of the earliest entrepreneurs in the domestic computer industry, Li Guangnan's reputation in this industry is well-known. The grievances and grievances between him and Lenovo Computer CEO Liu Chuanzhi can be regarded as an example of commercial textbooks.

Li Guangnan was the first chief engineer of the former Institute of Computer Science, the former Lenovo Group, and was a well-deserved master of computer technology in China. The combination of him and Liu Chuanzhi made great contributions to Lenovo becoming the top student in domestic computer companies. However, Yang Xing learned that since 1994, Lenovo's main product, Lenovo Hancard, was selling Lenovo Hancard at that time, and the company urgently needed a new product to open up the situation. As the chief engineer, Li Guangnan set his goal on domestic CP

u "China Chip". However, this practice was strongly opposed by Liu Chuanzhi, the then Lenovo operator. He believed that Lenovo did not have the technology and funds to launch "China Chip" at that time. Li Guangnan made the mistake of "technology first". No matter how excellent the technology is, it would be impossible to sell any high-tech product, not to mention that Lenovo did not have the strength at all. As a result, the "China Chip" plan was still in the womb, and the conflict between the two intensified until it broke completely!

Li Guangnan is a very stubborn person. He was kicked out of the game by Lenovo, but he did not give up. Naturally, he turned his attention to the industry's new star "Superstar Computer" whose sales performance is second only to Lenovo and is very qualified to challenge Lenovo's status. In recent years, Nebula Electronics has been making frequent moves in the information industry. After acquiring Giant Computer and renamed Giant Computer, it expanded its business to information products such as programmable switches, networks, and fiber optic manufacturing. Last year, Zhongxing Group won the CCTV queen and spent money

The flowing stream has launched intensive advertising offensives in TV, radio, and newspapers everywhere. A large part of them are spent on information products under Nebula Electronics, which has led to a sharp increase in sales of superstar computers, which has surpassed computer brands such as Founder, Tongfang, Great Wall, etc., and is close to Lenovo's domestic computer leader. At the same time, Nebula Electronics is also the main OEM manufacturer of many international computer brands such as HP and Dell. It is no wonder that Li Guangnan came to Nebula Electronics to implement his "China Core" plan.

Yang Xing knew that Wu Haijun and Li Guangnan were close, and both were teachers and friends. He couldn't help but ask Zhang Rujing: "Mr. Zhang has no idea about this?" Zhang Rujing nodded and said: "I am considering that our wafer factories in Hong Kong and the mainland are about to be completed. As a basic product, wafers still need sufficient downstream orders to support them. Relying on order support within the group alone is not a long-term solution. If you want to launch a new production line, you need to increase research on downstream products. CPU is said to be the crown of the entire microelectronics industry. It is fake to say that you are not moved by this. Now the group's mobile microprocessor has begun to produce. I think it is not impossible to develop CPU chips in the next step, but Mr. Yang asked us to come here and have other ideas?"

Yang Xing nodded and agreed: "I know that Li Guangnan is a man who has no selfish intentions in doing things. He also considers the overall situation of the country and nation when he wants to start a "China core". But his scholarly businessman is too enthusiastic and too idealistic, which is very dangerous. He believes that technology is the first among the three things in the development of enterprises: trade, manufacturing and technology. I don't agree with this. Indeed, if our country can really master the core design and manufacturing technology of CPU, even if the West blockade of our technology is broken open. But you

Have you ever thought that there are many countries with a strong foundation in information technology than ours. Not to mention the far-reaching, the Japanese and Europeans have strong technical strength. The Japanese announced proudly after the Gulf War that without their chips, the Americans' precise guidance weapons would be a pile of scrap iron! Nec, Sony, Hitachi, and European Philips, STMicroelectronics, and Siemens. It seems that which company is not inferior to Intel, but why is the most used American CPU in the world?”

Wu Haijun and Zhang Rujing felt a wake-up call. The high emotions that were incited by Li Guangnan were suddenly awakened a lot. They felt that the young boss asked them to come here for some reason. Yang Xing pointed to Haiwan and said, "The reason is very simple. This technology is related to the leadership of Americans in the world's information industry. They will never allow others to get involved. Just like only one or two big fish are allowed to survive in this sea water, other fish will always be eradicated openly and secretly until the remaining fish are united to the outside world and form a monopoly."

"Is this big fish Intel?" Zhang Rujing asked in response, Yang Xing nodded with a smile, "Americans want to be bitches and establish a archway. In fact, Intel is about to reach a monopoly position. The chip manufacturers they support are just smoke screens. They do not have as much market share as Intel, and they are not rivals at all." Yang Xing said and handed them a report. "This is a private investigation I have asked to conduct. You can see where our gap is."
