Great Power Technology.

Chapter 98
On the first day of November, the largest national TV station in Yindu announced to the world a news that had been warming up for a long time in the evening news:
Yindu's own advanced fab was completed near the Ganges River, and successfully trial-produced the first 5nm-level chip.

They named this chip "Spirit Monkey".

The world's public opinion is boiling. Unlike the Western media's collective silence when the Spark Factory was realized, those reporters with their own filters flocked like flies to India, where they never wanted to go, and rushed to report on the "spirituality". First-hand news of the "monkey" chip.

This situation is exactly in line with what Chen Hao's chip industry project team expected. Only on the third day after the news was released, the factory announced that they had completed the first successful tape-out, and the chip manufacturing had entered the mass production stage. The price released to the outside world is only half of that of Huaxia's chips of the same level.

On the morning of the second day after the price was released, the stock prices of stocks related to the domestic chip industry experienced a collective decline for the first time, and Huaxin International’s stock price even fell by as much as 4%.

Although this is not a huge drop, objectively speaking, it does mean that domestic investors attach great importance to Yindu chip factories.

Although this group of people has always been unreliable, it is precisely because they have been unreliable that people doubt whether they will really be reliable once.

The most important thing is that behind this factory there is obviously the shadow of Ugly Country, which makes some domestic enterprises even more disturbed.

If Ugly Countries personally end the big price war, can our own enterprises survive?

No one answered their questions, and even officials remained unusually silent.

Ye Zhou contacted Chen Hao immediately after receiving the news, wanting to find out what the official strategy was.

From the phone, he heard Chen Hao's slightly tired voice.

".This incident was within our expectations. It can even be said that Yindu's progress was slower than we expected, giving us sufficient time to react."

"However, this does not mean that we should respond immediately when they just throw out the price war. Our original purpose is to take this opportunity to drag the other party into the quagmire, so the cheap chips they sell are getting better and better. The more, the better for us.”

"Because according to the strategy you provided before, after those two key pain points are revealed, this part of the market that was temporarily lost due to price will still come back to us. All we need is a certain amount of waiting time."

After listening to Chen Hao's explanation, Ye Zhou secretly nodded on the phone, and then continued to ask:

"What about the domestic situation? If there is no response, both public opinion and relevant domestic manufacturers will be affected. At that time, we will lose some of the benefits that should not have been lost, right?"

"...There is no way, this is a loss that must be borne. On the other hand, if they cannot make a firm choice when facing such a major national event, then these companies will not be the beneficiaries of our team."

"So, what do you mean, you guys also want to use this opportunity to clean up a bunch of unsettled scumbags?"

Chen Hao, who was facing him, paused for a moment, then replied:
"Let's put it this way. In fact, there are indeed some unscrupulous elements in our companies, but when we are not faced with important choices, it is difficult for us to screen them out."

"So, it's an opportunity and a test for them."

"Understood. Then I will wait to see your results."

After hanging up the phone, Ye Zhou opened the scarf again, wanting to take a look at the netizens' comments on it.

Unsurprisingly, those so-called well-known and big Vs really caught up with this trend, and a large number of people turned into negative blows and began to trample on the domestic chip manufacturing industry, similar to "things that have only been produced in China for 20 years, negative It took a few years to get it out", "Yindu's chips are cheap and easy to use, and their performance crushes domestic immature chips", "Yindu's cultural advantages determine that they will also have an advantage in the field of technology", etc. The speeches are endless.

But this time, Ye Zhou's heart did not fluctuate.

After these months of extreme pressure and uninterrupted study, he has grown from an unworldly graduate to a mature decision maker.

So in the face of these clown-like decisions, he will never lose his composure like he did at the beginning.

Because he knew that these people couldn't really do any damage to their grand plans.

When the torrent of history washed over the dry riverbed with an unstoppable force, those noisy toads standing on the bank of the river could not escape the fate of being drowned in the water.

On the other side of the ocean, in the Strategic Analysis Office, several people who have decided the direction of this commercial war are discussing the official attitude of Huaxia.

"The other party's reaction this time is very intriguing. According to our previous judgment, even if they don't immediately announce the corresponding price reduction or promotion plan, some marginal figures should come out to comment."

"For example, when the Yindu aircraft carrier was launched, didn't a military expert named Zhang Zhaozhong come out to speak? We judged that their purpose was not to make a professional military commentary, but to use his interview to dispel domestic panic. "

"In fact, what happened later did confirm our guess."

"So this time their attitude makes me feel very strange-don't you think it's abnormal?"

The first person to speak was a white-haired old man. He was the most experienced strategic research expert among these people. He once worked for the RAND Corporation and spent most of his life as the chief researcher.

"I find it odd too, but based on the information we've gathered, this non-response behavior can be explained."

"What's your explanation?"

"We think this is their arrogance. They have just produced a purely domestic lithography machine and are still rapidly improving this industrial chain. Such a huge achievement may have gone to their heads."

"This makes them think that as long as they master the core technology, they will automatically achieve commercial success."

"Our opponents have a term called 'national self-confidence'. I think their performance is the intuitive response of this so-called self-confidence --- or, this should be called 'arrogance' to be more appropriate."

"They presumably overestimate the character of their own domestic businesses and business owners, thinking that these people will give up low-hanging fruit for a vain sense of honor."

"In fact, this kind of wishful thinking has been falsified countless times by history. Even in their own country, they can't do it, at least most companies can't do it."

The white-haired old man nodded. Strategic analysis has never been about cold numbers. It is more about inferring the opponent's intentions from numbers, facts, and a few words.

He now thinks that the judgment of the young man in front of him is very convincing.

Because he accurately grasped the center of gravity of this game.

The victory of this collision must depend on its domestic enterprises and people.

In order to gain the support of domestic enterprises, our side has invested a lot of money and made a major commitment with the endorsement of national credit, and finally got the support of these businessmen.

In his cognition, this is the only effective and only safe way.

And the other party obviously didn't make such a plan, and they wanted to rely on spiritual power to fight against the power of capital, which was a bit too taken for granted.

Thinking of this, he said:
"Your judgment is reasonable, but just in case, we still have to make plans."

"You immediately notify the downstream companies to increase the supply to the Yindu factory to ensure that they have enough chips to hit the market and win contracts."

"In addition, the propaganda in public opinion must continue!"

"I want those Chinese business owners to feel their disadvantages, and after witnessing their official inaction, fall into our arms!"
